Retina Quotations
The question of how the eye works - that is, what happens when a photon of light first impinges on the retina - simply could not be answered at that time.
Michael Behe
The cooperation of the two retina in one field of vision, whatever is its cause, must rather be the source of all the ideas to which single or double vision may give rise.
Johannes P. Muller
It is exceedingly improbable that the identical action of the corresponding parts of the two retina is the result of a certain habituation, or of the influence of the mind.
Johannes P. Muller
