Friday quote of the day to ponder comes from E.O. Wilson, an American biologist, theorist, naturalist and author:-
“The real problem of humanity is the following: we have paleolithic emotions; medieval institutions; and god-like technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.”
“We’re a mixed up and, in many ways, still archaic species in transition.”
Bonus fact: Wilson is seen as the world’s leading scientific expert on ants – so now you’re safe if anyone ever forces you at gunpoint to name a notable myrmecologist…
