"Evolution from amoeba to man is generally considered to be progress, but whether the amoeba agrees with this opinion is not known."
One day Lord Russell placed his hand under the objective lens of a powerful microscope and discovered to his delight that his own body consisted of trillions of amœbæ.
I used to hear the blighter talk on the radio, and I was always amused by his halting, stammering pattern of speech, which I attributed to the profundity of his thought. Now I know that his difficulty lay in arriving at an amœbic consensus.
Eugene Paul
