The 'missing link' between ape and man will probably never be found- because it was an embryo.
I don't think we came from monkeys. I think that's ridiculous. I haven't seen a half-monkey, half-person yet.
It is hard for the ape to believe he descended from man.
Snicker on hearing his name: 'the gentleman who thinks we are descended from the apes.'
We admit that we are like apes, but we seldom realise that we are apes.
Some people will deny anything that displeases or scares them: unusual pain in their chests, unwanted lumps beneath their skin, or the fact that humans share ancestry with apes are a few examples. Another is climate change.
It is disturbing to discover in oneself these curious revelations of the validity of the Darwinian theory. If it is true that we have sprung from the ape, there are occasions when my own spring appears not to have been very far.
