If we possessed a thorough knowledge of all the parts of the seed of any animal (e.g., man), we could from that alone, by reasons entirely mathematical and certain, deduce the whole conformation and figure of each of its members, and, conversely if we knew several peculiarities of this conformation, we would from those deduce the nature of its seed.

因为所翻译的书中引用这段话,因为是名言,不敢乱译。

如果我们拥有对所有的任何动物(如人类)种子部件的透彻了解,我们可以从单独的原因完全是某些数学,推导出整个构象和每个成员的数目,并反过来如果我们根本不知道这几种形态特点,我们会从这些推算出其种子的性质。
