"Darwin's statements concerning hybrids of the genera mentioned in The Variation of Animals and Plants Under Domestication, based on reports of others, need to be corrected in many respects."

"If my work is ignored now, it will be recognized when the time is right."

"Whether they will retain the characteristics of the hybrid, or whether they will show variations, will be determined by next year's observations."

"The constant differential characters of the two parent forms are transmitted to the hybrids unchanged."

"My scientific work brought me such satisfaction, and I am convinced the entire World will recognize the results of these studies."
