Life would have been quite another matter for them both if they had
learned in time that it was easier to avoid great matrimonial
catastrophes than trivial everyday miseries. But if they had learned
anything together, it was that wisdom comes to us when it can no
longer do any good.


He was still too young to know that the heart's memory eliminates the bad and
magnifies the good, and that thanks to this artifice we manage to
endure the burden of the past.

" Florentino Ariza remembered a phrase from his childhood, something
that the family doctor, his godfather, had said regarding his chronic
constipation: “The world is divided into those who can shit and those
who cannot.” On the basis of this dogma the Doctor had elaborated an
entire theory of character, which he considered more accurate than
astrology. But with what he had learned over the years, Florentino
Ariza stated it another way: “The world is divided into those who screw
and those who do not.” He distrusted those who did not: when they
strayed from the straight and narrow, it was something so unusual for
them that they bragged about love as if they had just invented it.
Those who did it often, on the other hand, lived for that alone. They
felt so good that their lips were sealed as if they were tombs, because
they knew that their lives depended on their discretion. They never
spoke of their exploits, they confided in no one, they feigned
indifference to the point where they earned the reputation of being
impotent, or frigid, or above all timid fairies, as in the case of
Florentino Ariza. But they took pleasure in the error because the error
protected them. They formed a secret society, whose members
recognized each other all over the world without need of a common
language, which is why Florentino Ariza was not surprised by the girl's
reply: she was one of them, and therefore she knew that he knew that
she knew."

Oskar Schindler: In every business I tried, I can see now, it wasn't me that failed. Something was missing. Even if I'd known what it was, there's nothing I could have done about it because you can't create this thing. And it makes all the difference in the world between success and failure.
Emilie Schindler: Luck?
[Schindler kisses his wife's hand and smiles]
Oskar Schindler: War.

Science is not the absolute truth, it's only the revised truth.

  There is no right way or a wrong way there is only the best way available.

The OOA theory relatively recently in evolutionary history modern humans started migrating from Africa and over the course of time differentiated into the various races that we know today. As far as I know it doesn't explain why those humans started migrating only then and not before or after.

In that regard i want to advance a hypothesis that humans migrate to other parts of the world only when the climatic conditions to migrate there become conducive. Therefore, the temperatures in Africa might have increased or decreased at that time which led to those early humans migrating from there.
Such a migration is happening right now where people from different regions of the world are able to migrate to other regions. They can do so because the climatic conditions that previously posed as a barrier have now been overcome because of better food(such as to overcome vitamin D deficiency ) and protective equipment available(such as sunscreen, winter jackets and boots).

There might come a time in future when once again the earth starts cooling off and the ice sheets start expanding from the polar regions towards the equator at such a time the human migration will once again reduce or stop because under such circumstances migration will once more be unfeasible.
