„I like to define biology as the history of the earth and all its life — past, present, and future.“
— Rachel Carson American marine biologist and conservationist 1907 - 1964
Preface to Humane Biology Projects (1961) by the Animal Welfare Institute
Kontext: I like to define biology as the history of the earth and all its life — past, present, and future. To understand biology is to understand that all life is linked to the earth from which it came; it is to understand that the stream of life, flowing out of the dim past into the uncertain future, is in reality a unified force, though composed of an infinite number and variety of separate lives.
„Sorrows remembered sweeten present joy.“

— Robert G. Ingersoll Union United States Army officer 1833 - 1899
Is Divorce Wrong? (1889)
Kontext: To me, the tenderest word in our language, the most pathetic fact within our knowledge, is maternity. Around this sacred word cluster the joys and sorrows, the agonies and ecstasies, of the human race. The mother walks in the shadow of death that she may give another life. Upon the altar of love she puts her own life in pawn. When the world is civilized, no wife will become a mother against her will.
