Quotations



God made all animals that walk on the earth (the sixth day), on the same day. He created man separately in His own image with the intent that man would have dominion over every other living thing on Earth (Genesis, 1:26-28)

All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of bidrs.  (I Corinthians, 15:39)

When we look at living creatures from an outward point of view, one of the first things that strike us is that they are bundles of habits.  - William James, American Psychologist and Philosopher


Great men may mould history, but it is good men who make the earth wholesome. - Emerson

So much of the knowledge in our minds is based on lies and superstitions that come from thousands of years ago. Humans create stories long before we are born, and we inherit those stories, we adopt them, and we live in those stories. - Don Miguel Ruiz, the Mexican spiritual author, The Voice of Knowledge, 2004

Where is the life we lost in living? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information? - T.S. Eliot

Unless man increases in wisdom as much as in knowledge, increase of knowledge will only be increase of sorrow.  - Bertrand Russell, Impact of Science on Society (1952)
