"Les idées une fois jetées dans les esprits sont comme les semences, dont le produit dépend des lois de la nature, et non de la volonté de ceux qui les ont répandues."

Georges Cuvier was born #OTD in 1769.

He was a major figure in natural sciences research in the early 19th century and was instrumental in establishing the fields of comparative anatomy and paleontology through his work in comparing living animals with fossils. via nostr:npub1kvnpp3m60derhwpqwc09zhk3ehk48tr6agc6dk9z2vggu9sga28qpxhm73
