• Desde los albores de la civilización, las mujeres han estado cargadas de desviación y doblez, por lo que nunca han podido fingir que sus máscaras fueran otra cosa que máscaras. Es un caso delicado, pero quizá signifique que las mujeres siempre han estado más en contacto con la realidad que los hombres: parecería la justa recompensa por estar privadas de idealismo.

• The business of proving evolution has reached a stage when it is futile for biologists to work merely to discover more and more evidence of evolution. Those who choose to believe that God created every biological species separately in the state we observe them, but made them in a way calculated to lead us to the conclusion that they are the products of an evolutionary development are obviously not open to argument. All that can be said is that their belief is an implicit blasphemy, for it imputes to God an appalling deviousness.
