"It is true, and thus the question of whether it is sad or happy has no meaning whatever."

QOTD (via b.) 

"A man has no reason to be ashamed of having an ape for his
grandfather.

"If there were an ancestor whom I should feel shame in recalling, it
would rather be a man -- a man of restless and versatile intellect --
who, not content with an equivocal success in his own sphere of
activity, plunges into scientific questions with which he has no real
acquaintance, only to obscure them by an aimless rhetoric, and
distract the attention of his hearers from the real point at issue by
eloquent digressions and skilled appeals to religious prejudice."

- T.H. Huxley
