The Most Remembered and Most Often Quoted Statement
<em>The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. </em>I think that every American is well aware of the Gettysburg Address. They may not remember much about anything anyone else said, but we all remember the contents of Lincoln's remarks. It is taught in almost every school and at every grade level (nearly). It is as unAmerican to claim that no one will remember it as it is to claim that we do not have a democracy anywhere on earth. Not substantiated. At least in Lincoln's case.
<em>that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom.</em> This is the hardest one to make a comment about. It didn't look that way when in 1870 the 15th Amendment was passed. It sounded like slaves and others (Native Americans for one) were granted immediate freedom with the right to vote, but the states had ways of fighting back. It was not until the mid 1960s that this opinion began to be just words on a paper. I'd it was substantiated, but it took generations before you could say it really was so.
<em>That government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. </em>It remains to be seen whether this one is true or not. Great challenges like ahead. I don't think you could say either way.
Answer:
According to the article restless genes are different groups of genes that contribute multiple traits, some allowing us to explore and others pressing us to do so. They contribute the urge to explore, the ability, the motivation and the means.
Explanation:
The restless genes, according to the article, are responsible for the human compulsion to see what lies beyond what we can see.
They are genes built through human evolution of a gene variant, known as DRD4-7R and carried by roughly 20 percent of all humans, which researchers proved to be tied to curiosity and restlessness.
The genes make people more likely to take risks, explore new places, ideas, foods, relationships, drugs, and generally embrace movement, change, and adventure.
