"From quotations which I had seen, I had a high notion of Aristotle's merits, but I had not the most remote notion what a wonderful man he was. Linnaeus and Cuvier have been my two gods, though in very different ways, but they were mere schoolboys to old Arisotle." Charles Darwin, letter to William Ogle, English translator of Aristotle's Parts of Animals, Feb. 22, 1882
