The light of phylogeography

• (Evolution) is a general condition to which all theories, all hypotheses, all systems must bow and which they must satisfy henceforward if they are to be thinkable and true. Evolution is a light which illuminates all facts, a curve that all lines must follow. - Teilhard de Chardin (1927)
• Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution. - Theodosius Dobzhansky (1973)
• Nothing in evolution makes sense except in the light of phologenetics. - <currently unattributed but props to Willi Hennig>
• Nothing in phylogenetics makes sense except in the light of phylogeography. - <Further down the rabbit hole>
