“以至于马克思将《资本论》第一卷赠送给达尔文，并在扉页题词“赠送给查尔斯·达尔文先生，您的真诚的渴慕者卡尔·马克思”。却被达尔文婉言谢绝了。”

达尔文不但没有谢绝马克思的书，还回了信
“Dear Sir:
I thank you for the honour which you have done me by sending me your great work on Capital; & I heartily wish that I was more worthy to receive it, by understanding more of the deep and important subject of political Economy. Though our studies have been so different, I believe that we both earnestly desire the extension of Knowledge, & that this is in the long run sure to add to the happiness of Mankind.
I remain, Dear Sir
Yours faithfully,
Charles Darwin”

倒是有马克思要把资本论dedicate给达尔文被谢绝的传说，
后来证明是跟另一人（马克思的女婿）搞混了
