Famous quotes containing the word species:
“Our species successfully raised children for tens of thousands of years before the first person wrote down the word psychology. The fundamental skills needed to be a parent are within us. All were really doing is fine-tuning a process thats already remarkably successful.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“The further our civilization advances upon its present lines so much the cheaper sort of thing does fame become, especially of the literary sort. This species of fame a waggish acquaintance says can be manufactured to order, and sometimes is so manufactured.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)
“Genius detects through the fly, through the caterpillar, through the grub, through the egg, the constant individual; through countless individuals the fixed species; through many species the genus; through all genera the steadfast type; through all the kingdoms of organized life the eternal unity. Nature is a mutable cloud which is always and never the same.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
