Famous quotes containing the words darwin and/or people:

“It was at a particular moment in the history of my own rages that I saw the Western world conditioned by the images of Marx, Darwin and Freud; and Marx, Darwin and Freud are the three most crashing bores of the Western world. The simplistic popularization of their ideas has thrust our world into a mental straitjacket from which we can only escape by the most anarchic violence.”
—William Golding (b. 1911)

“The pleasures of the imagination are as it were only drawings and models which are played with by poor people who cannot afford the real thing.”
