Scott F. Gilbert
“Genetics might be adequate for explaining microevolution, but microevolutionary changes in gene frequency were not seen as able to turn a reptile into a mammal or to convert a fish into an amphibian. Microevolution looks at adaptations that concern the survival of the fittest, not the arrival of the fittest... The origin of species — Darwin’s problem — remains unsolved.”
― Scott F. Gilbert

Gilles Deleuze
“If you're trapped in the dream of the Other, you're fucked.”
― Gilles Deleuze

Lev Semyonovich Vygotsky
“Through others we become ourselves.”
― Lev S. Vygotsky

Richard  Adams
“Many human beings say that they enjoy the winter, but what they really enjoy is feeling proof against it.”
― Richard Adams, Watership Down

“Real understanding of any scientific subject must include some knowledge of its historical growth; we cannot comprehend and accept modern concepts and theories without knowing something of their origins - of how we have got where we are. Neglect of this maxim can lead to that unfortunate state of mind which regard the science of the day as finality.”
― Colin Cherry, On Human Communication: A Review, a Survey, and a Criticism
