“Every organism (and artifact) is a wholly improbable arrangement of its constituent atoms. Yet within the long chain of reproducing self-organization and restless evolution, these forms become highly probable, and even inevitable, because there are only a few ways such open-ended ingenuity can actually work in the real world; therefor, evolution must work through them. In this way, life is an inevitable improbability. And most of life's archetypal forms and stages are also inevitable improbabilities, or, we might say, improbable inevitabilities.” ~Kevin Kelly
