  • It is useful to the historian, among others, to be able to see the commonest forms of different phenomena, whether phonetic, morphological or other, and how language lives, carries on and changes over time.
    Ferdinand de Saussure
  • The history of most fossil species includes two features particularly inconsistent with gradualism: 1. Most species exhibit no directional change during their tenure on earth. They appear in the fossil record looking much the same as when they disappear; morphological change is usually limited and directionless. 2. In any local area, a species does not arise gradually by the steady transformation of its ancestors; it appears all at once and “fully formed.”
    Stephen Jay Gould
