“Is our race but the initial of the grand crowning type? Are there yet to be species superior to us”
Robert Chambers (publisher, born 1802) book Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation

Context: Is our race but the initial of the grand crowning type? Are there yet to be species superior to us in organization, purer in feeling, more powerful in device and act, and who shall take a rule over us! There is in this nothing improbable on other grounds. The present race, rude and impulsive as it is, is perhaps the best adapted to the present state of things in the world; but the external world goes through slow and gradual changes, which may leave it in time a much serener field of existence. There may then be occasion for a nobler type of humanity, which shall complete the zoological circle on this planet, and realize some of the dreams of the purest spirits of the present race.

But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.
