Thomas Henry Huxley Quote

The earth, from the time of the chalk to the present day, has been the theater of a series of changes as vast in their amount as they were slow in their progress. The area on which we stand has been first sea and then land for at least four alterations and has remained in each of these conditions for a period of great length.
