Evolution Quotes - page 34
I heard that Jesus had a pet dinosaur. Evolution must be a myth then.
John Bacon
My prime interests are in evolution and development. I use the cellular slime molds as a tool to seek an understanding of those twin disciplines.
John Tyler Bonner
Only flies have true halteres. In fact, the scientific term for flies, 'diptera,' means 'two wings.' Most insects, including bees, have two pairs of wings for a total of four. In flies, the hindwing pairs have been transformed through evolution into the halteres.
Michael Dickinson
I'm obsessed with insects, particularly insect flight. I think the evolution of insect flight is perhaps one of the most important events in the history of life. Without insects, there'd be no flowering plants. Without flowering plants, there would be no clever, fruit-eating primates giving TED Talks.
Michael Dickinson
In the last century, as we learned more about genes, we were able to devise ways of accelerating evolution.
Nina Fedoroff
Fears of creating new kinds of plagues or of altering human evolution or of irreversibly altering the environment were only some of the concerns that were rampant.
Paul Berg
All that stuff I was taught about evolution, embryology, the Big Bang theory, all that is lies straight from the pit of Hell. And it's lies to try to keep me and all the folks who were taught that from understanding that they need a savior.
Paul Broun
It's a heartening fact about the human race that utopian fiction precedes dystopian fiction in the evolution of literature.
Paul Di Filippo
I'm a designer, and for me, things are always evolving, and such evolution is necessary.
Raf Simons
I think there will be 20 years of evolution from linear broadcast to internet television.
Reed Hastings
The evolution of social media into a robust mechanism for social transformation is already visible. Despite many adamant critics who insist that tools like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube are little more than faddish distractions useful only to exchange trivial information, these critics are being proven wrong time and again.
Simon Mainwaring
The consciousness of lucid dreaming is a cultural evolution. It's something that we are talking about and learning about, not biological evolution.
Stephen LaBerge
As a musician, I look for certain things that stimulate me. And what I look for is something that's an evolution on a particular genre that I never heard before.
Steve Vai
I found 'Bordertown' when I was standing on the border between childhood and my teens, and it carried me past that transition. In the process, it helped to create the next step of its own evolution: the modern urban fantasy owes a lot more to 'Bordertown' than many people will ever know.
Seanan McGuire
Evolution happens in nature and in individuals. I want to participate actively in its happening within me.
Victoria Moran
I think of my poems as personal and public at the same time. You could say they serve as psychological overlays. One fits on top of the other, and hopefully there's an ongoing evolution of clarity.
Yusef Komunyakaa
Take the initiative. Go to work, and above all co-operate and don't hold back on one another or try to gain at the expense of another. Any success in such lopsidedness will be increasingly short-lived. These are the synergetic rules that evolution is employing and trying to make clear to us.
Buckminster Fuller
Evolution consists of many great revolutionary events taking place quite independently of man's consciously attempting to bring them about. Man is very vain; he likes to feel that he is responsible for all the favorable things that happen, and he is innocent of all the unfavorable happenings. But all the larger evolutionary patternings seeming favorable or unfavorable to man's conditioned reflexing are transpiring transcendentally to any of man's conscious planning or contriving.
Buckminster Fuller
I... interpret mechanics as a theory of relations between variables, rather than the theory of the evolution of variables in time.
Carlo Rovelli
It turns out that information leaks between universes at the quantum level. We think it accounts for all kinds of phenomena, from what drives evolution to strange insights and mystical experiences through the ages. The machine was built as an attempt to investigate and amplify them.
James P. Hogan
We can, in fact, relive the history of taste in our own lives, the way embryos are supposed to go through the history of the evolution of a species.
Charles Rosen
Man is a product of evolution, but not his independence. Independence is a social product.
Kim Jong-il
