“In considering the ‘Origin of Species’ it is quite conceivable that a naturalist, reflecting of the mutual affinities of organic beings, on their embryological relations, their geographical distribution, geological succession, and other facts might come to the conclusion that each species had not been independently created, but had descended, like varieties, from other species.”
“We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special.”
“Electricity can make such a difference to peoples live, they can read at night, they no longer have to breathe in noxious fumes like things from kerosene lamps, you can listen to the radio and be informed about what’s happening in your country, other countries, listen to your educational programs, you can refrigerate vaccines that can help save peoples lives. The amount of things that we take for granted in today’s society that some people just don’t have access to is mind boggling, when you step back and start to think about it.”
