Every civilized human being, whatever his conscious development, is still an archaic man at the deeper levels of his psyche. just as the human body connects us with the mammals and displays numerous relics of earlier evolutionary stages going back to even the reptilian age, so the human psyche is likewise a product of evolution which, when followed up to its origins, show countless archaic traits.

... if we take the universe of 'fitting,' countless coats 'fit' backs, and countless boots 'fit' feet, on which they are not practically fitted; countless stones 'fit' gaps in walls into which no one seeks to fit them actually. in the same way countless opinions 'fit' realities, and countless truths are valid, tho no thinker ever thinks them.

All that syrio forel had taught her went racing through her head. swift as a deer. quiet as shadow. fear cuts deeper than swords. quick as a snake. calm as still water. fear cuts deeper than swords. strong as a bear. fierce as a wolverine. fear cuts deeper than swords. then man who fears losing has already lost. fear cuts deeper than swords. fear cuts deeper than swords. fear cuts deeper than swords.

Darwin's principle of natural selection leads to the prediction that the proper way to analyze any evolutionary development is to see the new features as adaptive to environments. and that's a perfectly good principle. the problem is that there are many evolutionary biologists who view everything that happens in evolution as directly evolved for adaptive benefit. and that just doesn't work. whenever you build a structure for adaptive reasons, the structure is going to exhibit properties that have nothing to do with adaptation. they're just side consequences.
