Quotes

  • Nurlan Süleymanovhas quoted2 years ago
    No matter how much knowledge and wisdom you acquire during your life, not one jot will be passed on to your children by genetic means. Each new generation starts from scratch. A body is the genes' way of preserving the genes unaltered.
  • Nurlan Süleymanovhas quoted2 years ago
    If you look at the way natural selection works, it seems to follow that anything that has evolved by natural selection should be selfish.
  • Nurlan Süleymanovhas quoted2 years ago
    Much as we might wish to believe otherwise, universal love and the welfare of the species as a whole are concepts that simply do not make evolutionary sense.
