Wisdom in Space<p>Darwin's expression, "the struggle for existence," is sometimes erroneously interpreted as the struggle between different species. In reality, the struggle Darwin was thinking of and which drives evolution forward is the competition between near relations. What causes a species to disappear or become transformed into a different species is the profitable "invention" that falls by chance to one or a few of its members in the everlasting gamble of hereditary change. The descendants of these lucky ones gradually outstrip all others until the particular species consists only of individuals who possess the new "invention."<br> -- Konrad Lorenz (On Aggression)</p><p>⬆ <a href="https://c.im/tags/Wisdom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wisdom</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Quotes</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/KonradLorenz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KonradLorenz</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Competition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Competition</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/StruggleforExistence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StruggleforExistence</span></a></p><p>⬇ <a href="https://c.im/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Photography</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Panorama" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Panorama</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Pictographs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pictographs</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/RockArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RockArt</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DefianceHouse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DefianceHouse</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/LakePowell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LakePowell</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Utah" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Utah</span></a></p>
