Sentences with HOMOLOGICAL (5)
But in most of such cases of these apparently so closely similar organs, some important homological difference may be detected.
The homological structure, embryological development, and rudimentary organs of a species remain to be considered, whether it be man or any other animal, to which our attention may be directed; but these great classes of facts afford, as it appears to me, ample and conclusive evidence in favour of the principle of gradual evolution.

That interconnection, that architecture, is secure truth and is beauty. That's what mathematics is to me.
