"Evolutionary forces have played a tremendous role in shaping the content of human evaluative attitudes. ... [But] allowing our evaluative judgments to be shaped by evolutionary influences is analogous to setting out for Bermuda and letting the course of your boat be determined by the wind and tides: just as the push of the wind and tides on your boat has nothing to do with where you want to go, so the historical push of natural selection on the content of our evaluative judgments has nothing to do with evaluative truth."
- Sharon Street, "A Darwinian dilemma for realist theories of value"
