"Geologists are rapidly becoming convinced that the mammals spread from their central Asian point of origin largely because of great variations in climate."
"Thus the races, though alike in their physical response to climate, may possibly be different in their mental response because they have approached America by different paths."
"Surprising as it may seem, this study indicates that similar conditions are best for all sorts of races."
"From first to last the civilization of America has been bound up with its physical environment."
"In fact, the history of North America has been perhaps more profoundly influenced by man's inheritance from his past homes than by the physical features of his present home."
