“I hate a Barnacle as no man ever did before, not even a Sailor in a slow-sailing ship.”
The Life and Letters of Charles Darwin, Chapter IX “What a book a Devil’s chaplain might write on the clumsy, wasteful, blundering, low, and horridly cruel works of nature!”
Other letters, notebooks, journal articles, recollected statements “A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.”
The Life and Letters of Charles Darwin, Chapter VI “I discovered, though unconsciously and insensibly, that the pleasure of observing and reasoning was a much higher one than that of skill and sport. The primeval instincts of the barbarian slowly yielded to the acquired tastes of the civilized man.”
Autobiography, p. 79
