Note 196 — Chapter XVIII · LAMARCK’S THEORY AS TO THE EVOLUTION OF MAN
Reading edition
“How much this unclean beast resembles man!”—Ennius.
“Indeed, besides other resemblances the monkey has mammæ, a clitoris, nymphs, uterus, uvula, eye-lobes, nails, as in the human species; it also lacks a suspensory ligament of the neck. Is it not astonishing that man, endowed with wisdom, differs so little from such a disgusting animal!”—Linnæus.
