Young Adults Selection

Famous quotes containing the words young, adults and/or selection:

    The young elm that must be cut
    because its roots push at the house wall
    taps and scrapes my window
    urgently but when I look round at it
    remains still.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    When children dress like adults they are more likely to behave as adults do, to imitate adult actions. It is hard to walk like an adult male wearing corduroy knickers that make an awful noise. But boys in long pants can walk like men, and little girls in tight jeans can walk like women.
    David Elkind (20th century)

    Historians will have to face the fact that natural selection determined the evolution of cultures in the same manner as it did that of species.
    Konrad Lorenz (1903–1989)
