One of the greatest purposes a man/woman can ever be indulged in is the positive evolution of self for the selfless service to humanity. ~ Ufuoma Apoki
Self Evolution quotes by Ufuoma Apoki
The act of loving is an act of self-evolution even when the purpose of the act is someone else's growth. ~ M. Scott Peck
Self Evolution quotes by M. Scott Peck
Where is your water? Know your garden. ~ Hopi Teaching
Self Evolution quotes by Hopi Teaching
Physio-philosophy has to show how, and in accordance indeed with what laws, the Material took its origin; and, therefore, how something derived its existence from nothing. It has to portray the first periods of the world's development from nothing; how the elements and heavenly bodies originated; in what method by self-evolution into higher and manifold forms, they separated into minerals, became finally organic, and in Man attained self-consciousness. ~ Lorenz Oken
Self Evolution quotes by Lorenz Oken
There are times when Pride must transform into Vanity in order to reach the astray echo of the reflection of self. ~ Lionel Suggs
Self Evolution quotes by Lionel Suggs
The social web can't exist until you are your real self online. I have to be me. You have to be you. Once we are online as ourselves, connected to each other and our other friends, then you can have the evolution of what becomes the social web. ~ Sheryl Sandberg
Self Evolution quotes by Sheryl Sandberg
Understand this if nothing else: spiritual freedom and oneness with the Tao are not randomly bestowed gifts, but the rewards of conscious self-transformation and self-evolution. ~ Laozi
Self Evolution quotes by Laozi
The social dynamics of human history, even more than that of biological evolution, illustrate the fundamental principle of ecological evolution - that everything depends on everything else. The nine elements that we have described in societal evolution of the three families of phenotypes - the phyla of things, organizations and people, the genetic bases in knowledge operating through energy and materials to produce phenotypes, and the three bonding relations of threat, integration and exchange - all interact on each other. ~ Kenneth E. Boulding
Self Evolution quotes by Kenneth E. Boulding
Maybe evolution is irrelevant at dinnertime. ~ Jeffrey Steingarten
Self Evolution quotes by Jeffrey Steingarten
We walk for about an hour before Raffe whispers, "Does moping actually help humans feel better?"
"I'm not moping," I whisper back.
"Of course you're not. A girl like you, spending time with a warrior demigod like me. What's to mope about? Leaving a wheelchair behind couldn't possibly show up on the radar compared to that."
I nearly stumble over a fallen branch. "You have got to be kidding me."
"I never kid about my warrior demigod status."
"Oh. My. God." I lower my voice, having forgotten to whisper. "You are nothing but a bird with an attitude. Okay, so you have a few muscles, I'll grant you that. But you know, a bird is nothing but a barely evolved lizard. That's what you are."
He chuckles. "Evolution." He leans over as if telling me a secret. "I'll have you know that I've been this perfect since the beginning of time." He is so close that his breath caresses my ear.
"Oh, please. Your giant head is getting too big for this forest. Pretty soon, you're going to get stuck trying to walk between two trees. And then, I'll have to rescue you." I give him a weary look. "Again."
I pick up my pace, trying to discourage the smart comeback that I'm sure will come.
But it doesn't. Could he be letting me have the last say?
When I look back, Raffe has a smug grin on his face. That's when I realize I've been manipulated into feeling better. I stubbornly try to resist but it's already too late. ~ Susan Ee
Self Evolution quotes by Susan Ee
The evolution of humans can not only be seen as the grand total of their wars; it is also defined by the evolution of the human mind and the development of the human consciousness. ~ Friedrich Durrenmatt
Self Evolution quotes by Friedrich Durrenmatt
With the evolution of social media that includes blogging, Facebook, and Twitter, who and how information is delivered has changed tremendously. The landscape for news is a different place, and people have to accept that. ~ Michael Eric Dyson
Self Evolution quotes by Michael Eric Dyson
Biological evolution is too slow for the human species. Over the next few decades, it's going to be left in the dust. ~ Ray Kurzweil
Self Evolution quotes by Ray Kurzweil
The evolution of national unity and equal rights is all about what America represents as a nation today: a manifestation of the historical episodes of Jefferson and Henry as well as the Civil War, the Women's Suffrage movement, and the Civil Rights struggles. ~ Patrick Mendis
Self Evolution quotes by Patrick Mendis
The new anthropology required each culture to be understood on its own terms, as a product of its own evolution rather than as merely an earlier stage in the ascent toward Western civilization. ~ Guy Deutscher
Self Evolution quotes by Guy Deutscher
If we are merely a chance product of 'random happenstance' and nothing more, doesn't it strike you as a bit odd that we have the ability to contemplate the question of 'random happenstance' with such methodical complexity? ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Self Evolution quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
What happens when everyone is asleep is called Evolution. What happens when everyone is awake is called Revolution. ~ G.K. Chesterton
Self Evolution quotes by G.K. Chesterton
Pope Francis is not the first religious leader who has endorsed evolution and the Big Bang, but he is certainly one of the most influential. ~ Ken Ham
Self Evolution quotes by Ken Ham
The chicken is only an egg's way for making another egg. ~ Richard Dawkins
Self Evolution quotes by Richard Dawkins
At some point, human intelligence became collective and cumulative in a way that happened to no other animal. ~ Matt Ridley
Self Evolution quotes by Matt Ridley
Strategy is not a lengthy action plan. It is the evolution of a central idea through continually changing circumstances. ~ Jack Welch
Self Evolution quotes by Jack Welch
It was a revolution, but now it is an evolution. People know more ingredients, people know more techniques, and people look for more ingredients they've never looked for before. In the '80s, you couldn't find raw tuna in any restaurant that wasn't Japanese. Now, you can't find any restaurant without it or sashimi. ~ Wolfgang Puck
Self Evolution quotes by Wolfgang Puck
To bind one free man with love is better than to release a thousand slaves. ~ Idries Shah
Self Evolution quotes by Idries Shah
Evolution is a blind giant who rolls a snowball down a hill. The ball is made of flakes - circumstances. They contribute to the mass without knowing it. They adhere without intention, and without foreseeing what is to result. When they see the result they marvel at the monster ball and wonder how the contriving of it came to be originally thought out and planned. Whereas there was no such planning, there was only a law: the ball once started, all the circumstances that happened to lie in its path would help to build it, in spite of themselves. ~ Mark Twain
Self Evolution quotes by Mark Twain
I put all of my resources into pushing the evolution in an industry that is notoriously backwards and I enjoy pushing that envelope,. ~ George Lucas
Self Evolution quotes by George Lucas
All geologic history is full of the beginning and the ends of species-of their first and last days; but it exhibits no genealogies of development. ~ Hugh Miller
Self Evolution quotes by Hugh Miller
The evolution of the cosmos invokes in me a sense of mystery; the increase in biodiversity invokes the response of humility; and an understanding of the evolution of death offers me helpful ways to think about my own death. ~ Ursula Goodenough
Self Evolution quotes by Ursula Goodenough
Even in the latter case nature exhibits a kind of intelligence, and there is no reason to rule out the possibility that machines will do so too. If nature in the form of the human species could bring forth intelligent machines, the process of evolution would continue among the machines. ~ John N. Gray
Self Evolution quotes by John N. Gray
The shrimp's protein and ours are not exactly the same, but they're so
similar that if you turned up in court and tried to convince a judge that your
version was not a badly concealed plagiarism, you'd be very unlikely to win.
In fact, you'd be a laughing stock, for rhodopsin is not restricted to vent shrimp
and humans but is omnipresent throughout the animal kingdom.... Trying to persuade a judge that your rhodopsin is not plagiarised
would be like trying to clajm that your television set is fundamentally different
from everyone else's, just because it's bigger or has a flat screen. ~ Nick Lane
Self Evolution quotes by Nick Lane
Nothing is more conservative than a bacterium. ~ Nick Lane
Self Evolution quotes by Nick Lane
Natural selection is a blind and undirected consequence of the interaction between variation and the environment. Natural selection exists only in the continuous present of the natural world: it has no memory of its previous actions, no plans for the future, or underlying purpose. ~ Henry Gee
Self Evolution quotes by Henry Gee
Much more plausible is the computer-based explanation that dreams are a spillover from the unconscious processing of the day's experience, from the brain's decision on how much of the daily events temporarily stored in a kind of buffer to emplace in long-term memory... The American psychiatrist Ernest Hartmann of Tufts University has provided
anecdotal but reasonably persuasive evidence that people who are engaged in intellectual activities during the day, especially unfamiliar intellectual activities, require more sleep at night, while, by and large, those engaged in mainly repetitive and intellectually unchallenging tasks are able to do with much less sleep. ~ Carl Sagan
Self Evolution quotes by Carl Sagan
No one has ever found an organism that is known not to have parents, or a parent. This is the strongest evidence on behalf of evolution. ~ Tom Bethell
Self Evolution quotes by Tom Bethell
Let us accept the possibility that there is, at death, not an abrupt cessation of energy, rather a dispersal. This seems more than reasonable to me. Mind you, I've owned a series of old cars, and Im used to turning off the motor only to experience a series of rumblings and explosions that would shame many a volcano. This is the sort of thing I'm conceptualizing, a kind of clunky running-on. And just as some cars are more susceptible to this behavior, so people vary in the length of time, and the force with which, their energy sputters and gasps ... My example is overly dramatic, but it is not wholly unreasonable, and it serves to make this genetic mutation a player at the evolutionary table. You see what I'm getting at: a biologically and evolutionally sound model for the soul. (I didn't say I'd achieved it.) Let's conceive of the soul as an aura that human beings wear on their backs, cumberson as a tortoise's carapace. Some are larger than others. ~ Paul Quarrington
Self Evolution quotes by Paul Quarrington
Journalists generally have no bias toward one cosmological theory or another, but many have a natural preference for excitement. ~ Steven Weinberg
Self Evolution quotes by Steven Weinberg
Males of all species are made for wooing females, and females typically choose among their suitors. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Self Evolution quotes by Abhijit Naskar
The theory of evolution explains to us what our ancestry has been. It does not explain away our worth. Why should we be afraid to learn more about what we are? ~ Philip Kitcher
Self Evolution quotes by Philip Kitcher
[D]umb evolutionary processes have dramatically amplified the intelligence in the human lineage even compared with our close relatives the great apes and our own humanoid ancestors; and there is no reason to suppose Homo sapiens to have reached the apex of cognitive effectiveness attainable in a biological system. ~ Nick Bostrom
Self Evolution quotes by Nick Bostrom
If evolutionism were to be rejected, the whole structure upon which the modern world is based would collapse and one would have to accept the incredible wisdom of the Creator in the creation of the multiplicity of life forms which we see on the surface of the earth and in the seas. This realization would also change the attitude that modern man has concerning the earlier periods of his own history, vis-a-vis other civilizations and also other forms of life. Consequently the theory of evolution continues to be taught in the West as a scientific fact rather than a theory and whoever opposes it is usually brushed off as religious obscurantist. ~ Seyyed Hossein Nasr
Self Evolution quotes by Seyyed Hossein Nasr
Evolution taught us that adaptation is the key to survival. ~ Gemma Malley
Self Evolution quotes by Gemma Malley
Darwin struggled for a very long time with the problem of evolution being wrong but finally came up with the answer: it's all the fault of the females. . . The females aren't crazy at all. If a female sees a magnificent work of art, she knows she's dealing with an experienced male - a male who's good at surviving and who has enough time to spare to create a beautiful work of art. He's got to be a strong and healthy male, the kind of male you'd want to father your children. ~ Jan Paul Schutten
Self Evolution quotes by Jan Paul Schutten
First, I look at history the way I look at evolution. Some things die out for a good reason, and should be left dead. I put dictatorships and velociraptors in the same category: leave them in the past, where they can serve as frightening object lessons for the present. ~ Holly Lisle
Self Evolution quotes by Holly Lisle
We are not saying that if you believe in evolution that you can't be a Christian, not at all. Because the Bible says that by grace you are saved. You don't save yourself. It is by confessing the Lord Jesus and that he was rose from the dead that you are saved. ~ Ken Ham
Self Evolution quotes by Ken Ham
I think the measure of advancement depends on where you are stood and from what distance you look. A thousand years ago, we farmed the fields, built towns and defended our land with swords and spears. It is little different now, save for the number of people we have to protect. We still kill with a sharp edge or point of metal, blood runs red still, sons ride off to war and parents grieve. If you look at the Empire in its whole, then it is peaceful. If you look closely, you will see the small wars, the bandits and rebellions. Look more closely still and you'll see the petty crimes, the struggle to survive, the rich bleeding the poor. Even the soil can turn against its farmers, yielding few crops. Or the weather, a late frost killing the early crops. There is strife and conflict everywhere in the Empire. Everywhere you find men, you find conflict. ~ G.R. Matthews
Self Evolution quotes by G.R. Matthews
It was being written in the East that 'Sufism was formerly a reality without a name: now it is a name without a reality'. ~ Idries Shah
Self Evolution quotes by Idries Shah
There's an evolution from, today we tell computers to do stuff for us, to where computers can actually do stuff for us. For example, if I go and pick up my kids, it would be good for my car to be aware that my kids have entered the car and change the music to something that's appropriate for them. ~ Sundar Pichai
Self Evolution quotes by Sundar Pichai
The administrative and hierarchic aspects seem to be crucial in the evolution of belief systems. The truth is first revealed to all men, but very quickly individuals appear claiming sole authority and a duty to interpret, administer and, if need be, alter this truth in the name of the common good. To this end they establish a powerful and potentially repressive organisation. This phenomenon, which biology shows us is common to any social group, soon transforms the doctrine into a means of achieving control and political power. Divisions, wars and break-ups become inevitable. Sooner or later, the word becomes flesh and the flesh bleeds. ~ Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Self Evolution quotes by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
If our ethical code makes a purely arbitrary distinction between humans and all other species, then we have a code based on naked selfishness devoid of any higher principle. ~ Jared Diamond
Self Evolution quotes by Jared Diamond
Play begins as a major feature of mammalian evolution and remains as a major method of becoming reconciled with our present universe. ~ Brian Sutton-Smith
