Effective Quotation of Charles Darwin

Effective Quotations of Charles Darwin

1. 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 his god-like intellect 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.

2. The moral faculties are generally and justly esteemed as of higher value than the intellectual powers. But we should bear in mind that the activity of the mind in vividly recalling past impressions is one of the fundamental though secondary bases of conscience. This affords the strongest argument for educating and stimulating in all possible ways the intellectual faculties of every human being.

3. In the long history of humankind those who learned to collaborate and improvise most effectively have prevailed.

4. 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

5. In science the credit goes to the man who convinces the world, not the man to whom the idea first occurs.
