charles darwins quote

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.”

-Charles Darwin

what I think he is trying to say is that toughness and smartness does not matter all that matters is that if you can adapt to new things then you will still keep on living.
