Famous quotes containing the word evolution:

    “Analyze theory-building how we will, we all must start in the middle. Our conceptual firsts are middle-sized, middle-distanced objects, and our introduction to them and to everything comes midway in the cultural evolution of the race.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    “The evolution of sense is, in a sense, the evolution of nonsense.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “Historians will have to face the fact that natural selection determined the evolution of cultures in the same manner as it did that of species.”
    —Konrad Lorenz (1903–1989)
