Perhaps the greatest quote of all time. By Charles Darwin.
2007-07-25 15:03:00 “It is worthy of remark that a belief constantly inculcated during the early years of life, whilst the brain is impressible, appears to acquire almost the nature of an instinct; and the very essence of an instinct is that it is followed independently of reason.” ?Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man, 1871

Never...
2006-10-22 19:59:00 Charles Darwinhttp://darwin-online.org.-uk/Never before have Charles Darwin's writings been pulled together like this. Never before have you been able to search the entire body of his work, contrast facsimiles and text, and examine every aspect of each publication down to its spine and end pages. It's almost an embarrassment of riches and the University of Cambridge rightly boasts that "it's as close to holding the book in your hand as the Internet can be." For most of us, though, the joy in this archive will come from the unexpected details that surface about the famous Mr. Darwin. For instance, "a life in pictures" reveals images of the gentleman naturalist as a young boy and the path he paced while thinking. The obituaries from the time of his death, poetic snatches from his excursion notebooks, and the many zoological illustrations enrich our view not just of "On the Origin of Species," but of the origins of its author, as well."From Yahoo!
