The most important factor in survival is neither intelligence nor strength but adaptability.

The world will not be inherited by the strongest, it will be inherited by those most able to change.

It is not the biggest, the brightest or the best that will survive, but those who adapt the quickest.

In the long history of humankind (and animal kind, too) those who learned to collaborate and improvise most effectively have prevailed.

Species that struggle to adapt to survive will become extinct.

Intelligence is based on how efficient a species became at doing the things they need to survive.
