“What Galileo and Newton were to the 17th century, Darwin was the the 19th... Darwin himself was a liberal, but his theories had consequences in some degree inimical to traditional liberalism... like Kant [he] gave rise to a movement which he would have detested.”
— Bertrand Russell 1872 – 1970 CE
“20th century Voltaire”
from History of Western Philosophy
