“The great evolutionary biologist J B S Haldane (1892-1964), on being asked by a cleric what biology could say about the Creator, entertainingly replied, 'I'm really not sure, except that the Creator, if he exists, must have an inordinate fondness of beetles.”
David Beerling, The Emerald Planet: How Plants Changed Earth's History

“Genes in the tool kit are important actors in this picture, but the tool kit itself represents only possibilities, not destiny.”
David Beerling, The Emerald Planet: How Plants Changed Earth's History

“...'photosynthesis: the plant miracle that daily gives us bread and wine, the oxygen we breathe, and simply sustains all life as we know it.”
David Beerling, The Emerald Planet: How Plants Changed Earth's History
