After All, It Is A

I Believe That No One Who Is Familiar, Either With Mathematical Advances In Other Fields, Or With The Range Of Special Biological Conditions To Be Considered, Would Ever Conceive That Everything Could Be Summed Up In A Single Mathematical Formula, However Complex.

The Neutral Zone Of Selective Advantage In The Neighbourhood Of Zero Is Thus So Narrow That Changes In The Environment, And In The Genetic Constitution Of Species, Must Cause This Zone To Be Crossed And Perhaps Recrossed Relatively Rapidly In The Course Of Evolutionary Change, So That Many Possible Gene Substitutions May Have A Fluctuating History Of Advance And Regression Before The Final Balance Of Selective Advantage Is Determined.

I Believe Sanity And Realism Can Be Restored To The Teaching Of Mathematical Statistics Most Easily And Directly By Entrusting Such Teaching Largely To Men And Women Who Have Had Personal Experience Of Research In The Natural Sciences.

The Statistician Cannot Evade The Responsibility For Understanding The Process He Applies Or Recommends.

We Can Set No Limit To Human Potentialities; All That Is Best In Man Can Be Bettered; It Is Not A Question Of Producing A Highly Efficient Machine, ... But Of Quickening All The Distinctly Human Features, All That Is Best In Man, All The Different Qualities, Some Obvious, Some Infinitely Subtle, Which We Recognize As Humanly Excellent.
