George St. Clair

Many of these differences can be accounted for by the continuous operation of two processes, which may be called (1) the Choice of Mates ; and (2) the Law of Battle, of which the first bears some analogy to methodical selection in man, and the second to man's unconscious selection : or perhaps it would be truer to say that both correspond to man's unintentional selection. (More Strictly, both correspond to sexual selection in man. But sexual selection in man is partly methodical and partly unconscious.)
