    Voorbeeldzinnen

    1. The historical thesis can be summarized by saying that Darwinism has undergone three stages of evolution.
    2. The fittest survive. What is meant by the fittest? Not the strongest; not the cleverest— Weakness and stupidity everywhere survive. There is no way of determining fitness except in that a thing does survive. "Fitness," then, is only another name for "survival." Darwinism: That survivors survive.
