Seite 167 - Who knows exactly, and who shall in this world declare, whence and why this creation took place? The gods are subsequent to the production of this world ; then who can know whence it proceeded, or whence this varied world arose, or whether it uphold itself or not. He who, in the highest heaven, is the ruler of this universe, does indeed know ; but not another one can possess this knowledge.

He who in the highest heaven is the ruler of this universe, — he knows, or does not know.
Seite 45 - We come at length to those organisms which I have compared to drops of oil suspended in a mixture , of alcohol and water. We reach the protogenes of ' Haeckel, in which we have ' a type distinguishable from a fragment of albumen only by its finely granular character.
Seite 345 - He was one of the first, if not the very first, to practise excision in cases of carious joints.
