Quote by Stephen Jay Gould
We have become, by the power of a glorious evolutionary accident called intelligence, the stewards of life's continuity on earth. We did not ask for this role, but we cannot abjure it. We may not be suited to it, but here we are.
Summary
This quote asserts that as humans, our evolution and superior intelligence have unintentionally made us responsible for safeguarding life's existence on Earth. Despite not actively seeking this role, we cannot deny or avoid it. Although we may not feel inherently suitable or capable of fulfilling this responsibility, it remains our burden to bear. Consequently, we must acknowledge our position and actively engage in protecting and preserving the planet's ecological balance and the sustainability of life.
