“The mother must teach her son how to respect and follow the rules. She must teach him how to compete successfully with the other boys. And she must teach him how to find a woman to take care of him and finish the job she began of training him how to live in a family.

—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“God ... created a number of possibilities in case some of his prototypes failed—that is the meaning of evolution.”
