Стр. 154 - The astonishment which I felt on first seeing a party of Fuegians on a wild and broken shore will never be forgotten by me, for the reflection at once rushed into my mind — such were our ancestors. These men were absolutely naked and bedaubed with paint, their long hair was tangled, their mouths frothed with excitement, and their expression was wild, startled, and distrustful.

Стр. 183 - Croesus, was, through ignorance of his person, about to kill him. The king, overwhelmed by his calamity, took no care to avoid the blow or escape death ; but his dumb son, when he saw the violent designs of the Persian, overcome with astonishment and terror, exclaimed aloud, " Oh, man, do not kill Croesus...

De sorte que toute la suite des hommes, pendant le cours de tant de siècles, doit être considérée comme un même homme qui subsiste toujours et qui apprend continuellement...
Стр. 214 - What hast thou, Man, that thou dar'st call thine own ?— What is there in thee, Man, that can be known ? — Dark fluxion, all unfixable by thought, A phantom dim of past and future wrought...
Стр. 5 - I believe that animals have descended from at most only four or five progenitors, and plants from an equal or lesser number.
Стр. 7 - The early progenitors of man were no doubt once covered with hair, both sexes having beards ; their ears were pointed and capable of movement ; and their bodies were provided with a tail, having the proper muscles.
