“The great Christian art did not die because all possible forms had been used up; it died because faith was being transformed into piety. Now, the same conquest of the outside world that brought in our modern individualism, so different from that of the Renaissance, is by way of relativizing the individual. It is plain to see that man's faculty of transformation, which began by a remaking of the natural world, has ended by calling man himself into question.” MenWorldWayArtDifferentChristianFormUsedDiesIndividualNaturalModernCallingDiedTransformationFacultyIndividualismTransformedConquestNatural WorldPietyRenaissanceOutside WorldGreat ChristianChristian Art Author:Andre Malraux
“My own field of paleontology has strongly challenged the Darwinian premise that life's major transformations can be explained by adding up, through the immensity of geological time, the successive tiny changes produced generation after generation by natural selection.” NaturalMy OwnGenerationsFieldsMajorsTransformationTinySelectionPremisesNatural SelectionImmensityPaleontologyGeological Time Author:Stephen Jay Gould
“Zoologists have reckoned there are up to at least 750 species of animal that have been observed exhibiting same-sex behaviour, or gender role transformation (which is very common in a wide range of fauna). There is only one species on earth, however, which has exhibited homophobia or transphobia. And that is the species homo sapiens sapiens. Us. So let's not allow the foolish, ignorant or bigoted ever to use words like "natural."” Has BeensUseEarthSexNaturalAnimalCommonRolesTransformationSpeciesGenderWideFoolishIgnorantRangeBehaviourHomo SapiensHomophobiaGender RolesZoologist Author:Stephen Fry
“The Lockean assumption that if we put our labor to it then it becomes our own is totally fallacious. We have to figure out how to leave things alone, and build an economic system that's not built on a linear model, but instead on a cyclical model, because that's the natural world - it's cyclical and not linear. That is going to take a lot of transformation.” IfsWorldNaturalEconomicFiguresModelsBuiltLaborTransformationEnvironmentalAssumptionSustainabilityNatural WorldLinearEconomic Systems Author:Winona LaDuke
