Now

Quote_1.png
George G. Simpson
"Recognition of this kinship with the rest of the universe is necessary for understanding him, but his essential nature is defined by qualities found nowhere else, not by those he has in common with apes, fishes, trees, fire, or anything other than himself."

Nature

George G. Simpson

Family

Talent

Discovery

Quote_1.png

Quote_1.png
George G. Simpson
"He is a state of matter, a form of life, a sort of animal, and a species of the Order Primates, akin nearly or remotely to all of life and indeed to all that is material."
