“There is nothing at all singular or special in the astronomical situation of the earth.”
Source: Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation (1844), p. 32-33
Context: There is nothing at all singular or special in the astronomical situation of the earth. It takes its place third in a series of planets, which series is only one of numberless other systems forming one group. It is strikingly-if I may use such an expression-a member of a democracy. Hence, we cannot suppose that there is any peculiarity about it which does not probably attach to multitudes of other bodies—in fact, to all that are analogous to it in respect of cosmical arrangements.

As quoted in The World of Mathematics (1956) by J. R. Newman, p. 1832
