The historical development of the work of anthropologists seems to single out clearly a domain of knowledge that heretofore has not been treated by any other science.
From Franz Boas
Not so the scientist. The very essence of his life is the service of truth.
My parents had broken through the shackles of dogma.
My father had retained an emotional affection for the ceremonial of his parental home, without allowing it to influence his intellectual freedom.
I object to teaching of slogans intended to befog the mind, of whatever kind they may be.
I hope I may have succeeded in presenting to you, however imperfectly, the currents of thought due to the work of the immortal Darwin which have helped to make anthropology what it is at the present time.
