Charles Darwin

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change."

“A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.”

“In the long history of humankind (and animal kind, too) those who learned to collaborate and improvise most effectively have prevailed”

“An American Monkey after getting drunk on Brandy would never touch it again, and thus is much wiser than most men”

“To kill an error is as good a service as, and sometimes even better than, the establishing of a new truth or fact”
