Famous quotes containing the words evolution and/or sunday:
“By contrast with history, evolution is an unconscious process. Another, and perhaps a better way of putting it would be to say that evolution is a natural process, history a human one.... Insofar as we treat man as a part of naturefor instance in a biological survey of evolutionwe are precisely not treating him as a historical being. As a historically developing being, he is set over against nature, both as a knower and as a doer.”
—Owen Barfield (b. 1898)
“Roosevelt could always keep ahead with his work, but I cannot do it, and I know it is a grievous fault, but it is too late to remedy it. The country must take me as it found me. Wasnt it your mother who had a servant girl who said it was no use for her to try to hurry, that she was a Sunday chil and no Sunday chil could hurry? I dont think I am a Sunday child, but I ought to have been; then I would have had an excuse for always being late.”
—William Howard Taft (18571930)
