Quotations regarding 'Evolution'

Choose a letter: 
So much the worse, it may be, for a particular meeting: but the meeting is the individual, which on evolution principles, must be sacrificed for the development of the race.
Arthur Cayley, British Mathematician (1821-1895)
For the first time in history we can track the evolution of a pandemic in real time. Influenza viruses are notorious for their rapid mutation and unpredictable behaviour.
Margaret Chan, Chinese Public Servant
Love is a sacred reserve of energy; it is like the blood of spiritual evolution.
Teilhard de Chardin, French Philosopher (1881-1955)
You have to look at history as an evolution of society.
Jean Chretien, Canadian Statesman (1934-  )
Things change all the time, and they'll probably never be the same again. It's just the natural evolution of the human condition. Things change, and whatever it is is what it is. I mean, you try to start second guessing that, you either get rich or die broke.
Guy Clark, American Musician (1941-  )
If we turn to palaeontology to tell us about our biological evolution it is to prehistory that we look for evidence of the evolution of specifically human patterns of behaviour.
John G. D. Clark, -
Believing in evolution is believing in the unproved, while believing in Christ is believing in the proven.
Edwin Louis Cole, American Author
Promise yourself to live your life as a revolution and not just a process of evolution.
Anthony J. D'Angelo, -
We are so arrogant, we forget that we are not the reason for evolution, we are not the point of evolution. We are part of evolution. Unfortunately, we believe that we've been created to dominate the planet, to dominate nature. Ain't true.
Ted Danson, American Actor (1947-  )
The theory of evolution by cumulative natural selection is the only theory we know of that is in principle capable of explaining the existence of organized complexity.
Richard Dawkins, English Scientist (1941-  )
Today the theory of evolution is about as much open to doubt as the theory that the earth goes round the sun.
Richard Dawkins, English Scientist (1941-  )
The causes of youth violence are working parents who put their kids into daycare, the teaching of evolution in the schools, and working mothers who take birth control pills.
Tom DeLay, American Politician (1947-  )
This communication alone, by the comparison of the antagonisms, rivalries, movements which give birth to decisive moments, permits the evolution of the soul, whereby a man realizes himself on earth. It is impossible to be concerned with anything else in art.
Robert Delaunay, French Artist (1885-1941)
Biology is the science. Evolution is the concept that makes biology unique.
Jared Diamond, American Author (1937-  )
It is ironic that the one thing that all religions recognize as separating us from our creator, our very self-consciousness, is also the one thing that divides us from our fellow creatures. It was a bitter birthday present from evolution.
Annie Dillard, American Author (1945-  )
Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution.
Theodosius Dobzhansky, Ukrainian Scientist (1900-1975)
My recovery from manic depression has been an evolution, not a sudden miracle.
Patty Duke, American Actress (1946-  )
The evolution of humans can not only be seen as the grand total of their wars; it is also defined by the evolution of the human mind and the development of the human consciousness.
Friedrich Durrenmatt, Swiss Author (1921-1990)
Well, take the evolution of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. It began as hackers' rights. Then it became general civil liberties of everybody - government stay away.
Esther Dyson, American Scientist (1951-  )
Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages.
Thomas A. Edison, American Inventor (1847-1931)
