  • Well I got all these gullible friends together and given my past career in the movies I was a natural choice for the part. Of course I'm not the real Darwin - merely someone who has won a "Be Darwin for a Day" competition. And my coat isn't a real coat - it's just an anorak that has won a "Be Darwin's coat for a day" competition. Likewise my chair isn't a real chair - it's just an ordinary chair that has won "Be a professorial chair for the day" competition. But hey! that's showbiz!

  • Darwin, My Life and Letters Vol. 1, page 210, letter to Mr bentham admits, When we decend into details we can prove that no one species has changed ( i.e. We cannot prove that a single species has changed); nor can we prove that the supposed changes are beneficial, which is the ground work of the theory.
