Famous quotes containing the word evolution:

    “The more specific idea of evolution now reached is—a change from an indefinite, incoherent homogeneity to a definite, coherent heterogeneity, accompanying the dissipation of motion and integration of matter.”
    —Herbert Spencer (1820–1903)

    “What we think of as our sensitivity is only the higher evolution of terror in a poor dumb beast. We suffer for nothing. Our own death wish is our only real tragedy.”
    —Mario Puzo (b. 1920)

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