Famous quotes containing the word species:
“Heaven and hell suppose two distinct species of men, the good and the bad. But the greatest part of mankind float betwixt vice and virtue.”
—David Hume (17111776)
“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 (18921983)
“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)
