Species Abundance

Famous quotes containing the words species and/or abundance:

    There are acacias, a graceful species amusingly devitalized by sentimentality, this kind drooping its leaves with the grace of a young widow bowed in controllable grief, this one obscuring them with a smooth silver as of placid tears. They please, like the minor French novelists of the eighteenth century, by suggesting a universe in which nothing cuts deep.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 12:15.
