Epigenetic Landscape:
"There’s continual evolution and change. Man tends to think of the great security of things. He feels that if he’s familiar with it, he wants to hold on to it a little. . . just in fear. He’s been afraid of change. But change is always there. But what we have unique about human beings in relation to other living species is the following . . .
“I find when all the phenomena alters the environment, that its due to entropy, just as somebody would call a very inanimate system, as giving off energy. So in giving it off to the environment, it alters the environment. All the living creatures alter the environment a little more rapidly than the altered environment alters the creatures. So there’s a feedback regeneration going on here, which brings about evolution.”
