“ Man with all his noble qualities,
with sympathy which feels for the most debased,
with benevolence which extends not only to other men but to the humblest living creature,
with benevolence which extends not only to other men but to the humblest living creature,
with his god-like intellect
which has penetrated into the movements and constitution of the solar system —
which has penetrated into the movements and constitution of the solar system —
with all these exalted powers —
Man still bears in his bodily frame the indelible stamp of his lowly origin. ”
~ Charles Darwin; (Born 204 years ago today, February 12, 1809)
P.S. happy birthday to Abe Lincoln too ...
