Top Organisms Quotes
The position I took at the time was that we hadn't really examined any of the potential environmental consequences of introducing genetically modified organisms.
Jeremy Rifkin
If you want to study one of these strange organisms, you had better have a good justification. It's not good to study gene organisation in some obscure insect that no one's ever heard about.
Thomas R. Cech
The way that organizations and organisms anticipate the future is by taking signals from the past, most the time.
Kevin Kelly
If our society continues to support basic research on how living organisms function, it is likely that my great grandchildren will be spared the agony of losing family members to most types of cancer.
Paul D. Boyer
Darwin based his theory on generalizations that were strictly empirical. You can go out and see that organisms do vary, that variations are inherited, and that every organism is capable of increasing its numbers in sufficiently favorable circumstances.
