Стр. 118 - I believe that animals have descended from at most only four or five progenitors, and plants from an equal or lesser number.
Стр. 151 - The heights by great men reached and kept, Were not attained by sudden flight, But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night, Standing on what too long we bore With shoulders bent and downcast eyes, We may discern — unseen before — A path to higher destinies.

Стр. 77 - The problem of the common origin of languages has no necessary connection with the problem of the common origin of mankind. . . . .The science of language and the science of Ethnology have both suffered most severely from being mixed up together. The classification of races and languages, should be quite independent of each other.
