Evolution

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
Evolution Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Evolution

1.
The main object of a revolution is the liberation of man... not the interpretation and application of some transcendental ideology.
Genet, Jean

2.
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

3.
So they united, and the Communist revolution took the chain from their legs and wound it around their necks.
Bonom, Samuel

4.
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

5.
The more there are riots, the more repressive actin will take place, and the more we face the danger of a right-wing takeover and eventually a fascist society.
King Jr. Martin Luther

6.
Clemency is also a revolutionary measure.
Desmoulins, Camille

7.
Revolution begins with the self, in the self.
Bambara, Toni Cade

8.
Revolutions are always verbose.
Trotsky, Leon

9.
Independence in the end is the fruit of injustice.
Voltaire

10.
It is hard for the ape to believe he descended from man.
Mencken, H. L.

11.
I feel my belief in sacrifice and struggle getting stronger. I despise the kind of existence that clings to the miserly trifles of comfort and self-interest. I think that a man should not live beyond the age when he begins to deteriorate, when the flame that lighted the brightest moment of his life has weakened.
Castro, Fidel

12.
The historic ascent of humanity, taken as a whole, may be summarized as a succession of victories of consciousness over blind forces -- in nature, in society, in man himself.
Trotsky, Leon

13.
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

14.
A man may build himself a throne of bayonets, but he can't sit on it.
Inge, Dean William R.

15.
In this Revolution no plans have been written for retreat.
King Jr. Martin Luther

16.
History teaches us that the great revolutions aren't started by people who are utterly down and out, without hope and vision. They take place when people begin to live a little better -- and when they see how much yet remains to be achieved.
Humphrey, Hubert H.

17.
Normal life cannot sustain revolutionary attitudes for long.
Djilas, Milovan

18.
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

19.
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

20.
I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.
Adams, John

21.
One of the stupidest theories of Western life.
Muggeridge, Malcolm

22.
One revolution is like one cocktail, it just gets you organized for the next.
Rogers, Will

23.
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

24.
Every successful revolution puts on in time the robes of the tyrant it has deposed.
Tuchman, Barbara

25.
Every revolutionary ends up by becoming either an oppressor or a heretic.
Camus, Albert

26.
More and more, revolution has found itself delivered into the hands of its bureaucrats and doctrinaires on the one hand, and to the enfeebled and bewildered masses on the other.
Camus, Albert

27.
All successful revolutions are the kicking in of a rotten door. The violence of revolutions is the violence of men who charge into a vacuum.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

28.
The main effect of a real revolution is perhaps that it sweeps away those who do not know how to wish, and brings to the front men with insatiable appetites for action, power and all that the world has to offer.
Hoffer, Eric

29.
Revolution today is taken for granted, and in consequence becomes rather dull.
Lewis, Wyndham

30.
The scrupulous and the just, the noble, humane, and devoted natures; the unselfish and the intelligent may begin a movement -- but it passes away from them. They are not the leaders of a revolution. They are its victims.
Conrad, Joseph

31.
Revolutions are not made for export.
Khrushchev, Nikita

32.
Evolution has developed man to such a high degree that he builds zoos to keep his ancestors in cages.

33.
Disturbances in society are never more fearful than when those who are stirring up the trouble can use the pretext of religion to mask their true designs.
Diderot, Denis

34.
All revolutions devour their own children.
Rohm, Ernst

35.
When people contend for their liberty they seldom get anything for their victory, but new masters.
Halifax, Edward F.

36.
On the first day of a revolution he is a treasure; on the second he ought to be shot.

37.
In a revolution, as in a novel. the most difficult part to invent is the end.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

38.
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

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

40.
The spirit of revolution, the spirit of insurrection, is a spirit radically opposed to liberty.
Guizot, Francois (Pierre Guillaume)

41.
The Revolution was effected before the War commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments of their duties and obligations. This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people, was the real American Revolution.
Adams, John

42.
It is almost never when a state of things is the most detestable that it is smashed, but when, beginning to improve, it permits men to breathe, to reflect, to communicate their thoughts with each other, and to gauge by what they already have the extent of their rights and their grievances. The weight, although less heavy, seems then all the more unbearable.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

43.
The pre-human creature from which man evolved was unlike any other living thing in its malicious viciousness toward its own kind. Humanization was not a leap forward but a groping toward survival.
Hoffer, Eric

44.
We used to think that revolutions are the cause of change. Actually it is the other way around: change prepares the ground for revolution.
Hoffer, Eric

45.
You cannot make a revolution in white gloves.
Lenin, Vladimir Ilyich

46.
Whether a revolutions succeeds or fails people of great hearts will always be sacrificed to it.
Heine, Heinrich

47.
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

48.
Revolution, in order to be creative, cannot do without either a moral or metaphysical rule to balance the insanity of history.
Camus, Albert

49.
The worst of revolutions is a restoration.
Fox, Charles James

50.
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
