| Abstract | “I cannot remember that I ever published a word directly against religion of the clergy; but if you were to read a little pamphlet which I received a couple of days ago by a clergyman, you would laugh, and admit that I had some excuse of bitterness. After abusing me for two or three pages, in language sufficiently plain and emphatic to have satisfied any reasonable man, he sums up by saying that he vainly searched the English language to find terms to express his contempt for me and all Darwinians.” “On my last visit to Down, Mr. Darwin said, at his dinner-table, ‘Brodie Innes and I have been fast friends for thirty years, and we never thoroughly agreed on any subject but once, and then we stared at each other, and thought one of us must be very ill.’ ” Quotations of Charles Darwin given by Rev Brodie Innes, Vicar of Downe, 1846–1869. From The Life and Letters of Charles Darwin, Vol 2, by Francis Darwin (1888) |
