Letter "E" » Evolution
"The rise of every man he loved to trace,
Up to the very pod O!
And, in baboons, our parent race
Was found by old Monboddo.
Their A, B, C, he made them speak,
And learn their qui, quae, quod, O!
Till Hebrew, Latin, Welsh, and Greek
They knew as well's Monboddo!"

About: Evolution
"A fire-mist and a planet,
A crystal and a cell,
A jellyfish and a saurian,
And caves where the cavemen dwell;
Then a sense of law and beauty,
And a face turned from the clod–
Some call it Evolution,
And others call it God."
Author: William Herbert Carruth
About: Evolution
"There was an ape in the days that were earlier,
Centuries passed and his hair became curlier;
Centuries more gave a thumb to his wrist–
Then he was a Man and a Positivist."

About: Evolution
"Till o'er the wreck, emerging from the storm,
Immortal Nature lifts her changeful form:
Mounts from her funeral pyre on wings of flame,
And soars and shines, another and the same."
Author: Erasmus Darwin
About: Evolution
"Said the little Eohippus,
"I am going to be a horse,
And on my middle fingernails
To run my earthly course!

I'm going to have a mane!
I'm going to stand fourteen hands high
On the Psychozoic plain!"
