“For the whole consequence of evolution from blind impulse through conscious will to self conscious knowledge, seems still somehow to correspond to a continued result of births, rebirths and new births, which reach from the birth of the child from the mother, beyond the birth of the individual from the mass, to the birth of the creative work from the individual and finally to the birth of knowledge from the work.” ChildrenStillsSelfWholeSeemsMotherIndividualResultsCreativeEvolutionBirthMassConsciousConsequenceBlindImpulseRebirthSelf ConsciousCreative Work Book:journal Source: journal
“I can have little patience with those who oppose ... the theory of evolution or what are called "mechanistic" explanations of the phenomena of life because of certain moral consequences which at first seem to follow from these theories, and still less with those who regard it as irrelevant or impious to ask certain questions at all. By refusing to face the facts , the conservative only weakens his own position.” FirstsLittlesStillsI CanFactsSeemsFacesCertainAsksMoralPositionTheoryEvolutionConsequenceRegardConservativeExplanationPhenomenonIrrelevantTheory Of Evolution Author:Friedrich August von Hayek
