Thomas Malthus Quotes

The question is, what is saving? Picture Quote #1

Man cannot live in the midst of plenty Picture Quote #1

The perpetual struggle for room and food Picture Quote #1

The power of population is indefinitely greater than the power in the earth to produce subsistence for man Picture Quote #1

It does not, however, seem impossible that by an attention to breed, a certain degree of improvement, similar to that among animals, might take place among men. Whether intellect could be communicated may be a matter of doubt: but size, strength, beauty, complexion, and perhaps even longevity are in a degree transmissible... As the human race could not be improved in this way, without condemning all the bad specimens to celibacy, it is not probable, that an attention to breed should ever become general Picture Quote #1
