- Gasset, Jose Ortega Y
Evolution Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Evolution

1.
The differences between revolution in art and revolution in politics are enormous. Revolution in art lies not in the will to destroy but in the revelation of what has already been destroyed. Art kills only the dead.
Rosenberg, Harold

2.
All revolutions devour their own children.
Rohm, Ernst

3.
It is curious how there seems to be an instinctive disgust in Man for his nearest ancestors and relations. If only Darwin could conscientiously have traced man back to the Elephant or the Lion or the Antelope, how much ridicule and prejudice would have been spared to the doctrine of Evolution.
Ellis, Havelock

4.
I had such a wonderful feeling last night, walking beneath the dark sky while cannon boomed on my right and guns on my left the feeling that I could change the world only by being there.
Butnariu, Viorica

5.
We live between two worlds; we soar in the atmosphere; we creep upon the soil; we have the aspirations of creators and the propensities of quadrupeds. There can be but one explanation of this fact. We are passing from the animal into a higher form, and the drama of this planet is in its second act.
Reade, W. Winwood

6.
At the crash of economic collapse of which the rumblings can already be heard, the sleeping soldiers of the proletariat will awake as at the fanfare of the Last Judgment and the corpses of the victims of the struggle will arise and demand an accounting from those who are loaded down with curses.
Liebknecht, Karl

7.
I believe that our Heavenly Father invented man because he was disappointed in the monkey.
Twain, Mark

8.
In a revolution, as in a novel. the most difficult part to invent is the end.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

9.
Most revolutionaries are potential Tories, because they imagine that everything can be put right by altering the shape of society; once that change is effected, as it sometimes is, they see no need for any other.
Orwell, George

10.
A man may build himself a throne of bayonets, but he can't sit on it.
Inge, Dean William R.

11.
The worst of revolutions is a restoration.
Fox, Charles James

12.
Evolution has developed man to such a high degree that he builds zoos to keep his ancestors in cages.

13.
The more specific idea of Evolution now reached is -- a change from an indefinite, incoherent homogeneity to a definite, coherent heterogeneity, accompanying the dissipation of motion and integration of matter.
Spencer, Herbert

14.
The question is this -- Is man an ape or an angel? My Lord, I am on the side of the angels. I repudiate with indignation and abhorrence these new fanged theories.
Disraeli, Benjamin

15.
The excessive increase of anything causes a reaction in the opposite direction.
Plato

16.
Natural selection, as it has operated in human history, favors not only the clever but the murderous.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

17.
I began revolution with 82 men. If I had [To] do it again, I do it with 10 or 15 and absolute faith. It does not matter how small you are if you have faith and plan of action.
Castro, Fidel

18.
The revolutionary spirit is mighty convenient in this, that it frees one from all scruples as regards ideas. Its hard absolute optimism is repulsive to my mind by the menace of fanaticism and intolerance it contains. No doubt one should smile at these things; but, imperfect Esthete, I am no better Philosopher. All claim to special righteousness awakens in me that scorn and anger from which a philosophical mind should be free.
Conrad, Joseph

19.
I was probably the only revolutionary referred to as cute.
Hoffman, Abbie

20.
He that goeth about to persuade a multitude that they are not so well governed as they ought to be shall never want attentive and favorable hearers.
Hooker, Richard

21.
Revolutions are brought about by men, by men who think as men of action and act as men of thought.
Nkrumah, Kwame

22.
Darwinian man, though well-behaved, at best is only a monkey shaved.
Gilbert, W. S.

23.
It is hard for the ape to believe he descended from man.
Mencken, H. L.

24.
We have wasted our spirit in the regions of the abstract and general just as the monks let it wither in the world of prayer and contemplation.
Herzen, Alexander

25.
A nation grown free in a single day is a child born with the limbs and the vigor of a man, who would take a drawn sword for his rattle, and set the house in a blaze that he might chuckle over the splendor.
Smith, Sydney

26.
A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind, courteous, restrained and magnanimous. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another.
Zedong, Mao

27.
Every successful revolution puts on in time the robes of the tyrant it has deposed.
Tuchman, Barbara

28.
You said, They're harmless dreamers and they're loved by the people. -- What, I asked you, is harmless about a dreamer, and what, I asked you, is harmless about the love of the people? Revolution only needs good dreamers who remember their dreams.
Williams, Tennessee

29.
A revolution is not a bed of roses. A revolution is a struggle between the future and the past.
Castro, Fidel

30.
A great revolution is never the fault of the people, but of the government.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

31.
Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.
Bierce, Ambrose

32.
True revolutionaries are like God -- they create the world in their own image. Our awesome responsibility to ourselves, to our children, and to the future is to create ourselves in the image of goodness, because the future depends on the nobility of our imaginings.
Harrison, Barbara Grizzuti

33.
One revolution is like one cocktail, it just gets you organized for the next.
Rogers, Will

34.
Every revolutionary ends up by becoming either an oppressor or a heretic.
Camus, Albert

35.
The probability of life originating from accident is comparable to the probability of the unabridged dictionary resulting from an explosion in a printing shop.
Conklin, Edward

36.
Man has lost the basic skill of the ape, the ability to scratch its back. Which gave it extraordinary independence, and the liberty to associate for reasons other than the need for mutual back-scratching.
Baudrillard, Jean

37.
All partisan movements add to the fullness of our understanding of society as a whole. They never detract; or, in any case, one must not allow them to do so. Experience adds to experience.
Walker, Alice

38.
In revolutions the occasions may be trifling but great interest are at stake.
Aristotle

39.
Thinkers prepare the revolution and bandits carry it out.
Azuela, Mariano

40.
Revolution today is taken for granted, and in consequence becomes rather dull.
Lewis, Wyndham

41.
The brutalities of progress are called revolutions. When they are over we realize this: that the human race has been roughly handled, but that it has advanced.
Hugo, Victor

42.
Riots are the voices of the unheard.
King Jr. Martin Luther

43.
No one makes a revolution by himself; and there are some revolutions which humanity accomplishes without quite knowing how, because it is everybody who takes them in hand.
Sand, George

44.
In every revolution there intrude, at the side of its true agents, men of a different stamp; some of them survivors of and devotees to past revolutions, without insight into the present movement, but preserving popular influence by their known honesty and courage, or by the sheer force of tradition; others mere brawlers, who, by dint of repeating year after year the same set of stereotyped declamations against the government of the day, have sneaked into the reputation of revolutionists of the first water They are an unavoidable evil: with time they are shaken off.
Marx, Karl

45.
Independence in the end is the fruit of injustice.
Voltaire

46.
Revolution, in order to be creative, cannot do without either a moral or metaphysical rule to balance the insanity of history.
Camus, Albert

47.
So they united, and the Communist revolution took the chain from their legs and wound it around their necks.
Bonom, Samuel

48.
Men are made uneasy; they flinch; they cannot bear the sudden light; a general restlessness supervenes; the face of society is disturbed, or perhaps convulsed; old interests and old beliefs have been destroyed before new ones have been created. These symptoms are the precursors of revolution; they have preceded all the great changes through which the world has passed.
Buckle, Henry Thomas

49.
Two million years from now the scientists can start a row by claming that the creatures of that period descended from us.

50.
Revolution begins with the self, in the self.
Bambara, Toni Cade
