Famous Quotes & Sayings

John Timoney

There is a fingerprint and DNA match and an eyewitness has identified this individual,

Richard Dawkins

The messages that DNA molecules contain are all but eternal when seen against the time scale of individual lifetimes. The lifetimes of DNA messages give or take a few mutations are measured in units ranging from millions of years to hundreds of millions of years; or, in other words, ranging from 10,000 individual lifetimes to a trillion individual lifetimes. Each individual organism should be seen as a temporary vehicle, in which DNA messages spend a tiny fraction of their geological lifetimes.

Richard Dawkins

The thing that defines a species is that all members have the same addressing system for their DNA.

Russell Brand

Then, of course, through the umbilical link we all tumble backwards down the spiralling DNA staircase to one common ancestor in Africa, and before that some bunch of curious monkeys. Down and down we go unto the sea, unto the dust, the single cellular dust. What impulse drove one cell to become two? What yearning pulled the fish on to the land? What caused apes to walk upright? Some invisible magnetic pull. Is there a difference between attraction and intention? Where is evolution taking us?

Richard Dawkins

DNA neither cares nor knows. DNA just is. And we dance to its music.

Sgt. Ring

If the person who is responsible for doing this is watching, it is only going to take the smallest piece of evidence. One little piece of evidence. DNA is not visible to the naked eye and other pieces of evidence are not visible to the naked eye. And, when you walk and you move throughout the planet, you leave traces of yourself everywhere you go.

David Beito

The DNA test was useful for discounting these urban legends,

Emmitt Smith

If you know anything about me, I've never been a trash-talker. That's not even part of my DNA.

Oliver Stone

Many films are forgotten and deserve to be, but others glom onto the DNA and they keep a share of the collective consciousness. It's a profound question: What are we here for? What is the purpose, the sum effect of our work?

Mike Rippee

Kids can also just go on the computer and the Internet and get what they want. When I was growing up in Yerington 30 years ago, we didn't have any of those things.

James Altucher

Here's what a phone is: It's a computer that has a little app on it that allows me to dial numbers and then talk to someone.

John Flaherty

He's a very detail-oriented guy. For this job, he's got a great combination of old-school work ethic - knowing how to put the time in - and the new generation that uses computers and video to get as much information as possible.

Ken Dunham

It is already underway and will be activated unless people get removal tools. If you have opened an e-mail and your computer froze up, you should be very concerned.

Cary Fukunaga

I think the only reason people use PCs is because they have to. Mac is the most streamlined computer there is. I started using the Mac in college because I was doing editing, and they were the only computers we could use to do that.

Fred Rose

Whatever they end up doing as adults, they'll have to be highly technical and computer literate.

Jon Oringer

There is a lack of talent in technology, and we need to be encouraging kids in school to learn how to code. We need to encourage computer science as a major. We need to encourage entrepreneurism.

Paul Duca

We're on the computer e-mailing each other about trades and stuff. There's a lot of trash talking.

Megan Smith

There are several places in Vietnam where they're teaching computer science from second grade in class, so they don't have a gender divide because everybody is expected to program.

Michael Levitt

It's sort of nice in more general terms to see that computational science, computational biology is being recognized. It's become a very large field, and it's always in some ways been the poor sister, or the ugly sister, to experimental biology.

Andy Sudbrock

It's more related to plant biology than weather. But weather is a deciding factor on whether or not you can burn on any given day.

John Sulston

When it came to choice of subjects, science was obvious - since I was uninterested in anything else - but a decision that caused consternation in some eyes was my demand to take biology for A-level.

Justin Spicer

At Xavier I was a biology and pre-med double major, but they handle pre-med differently out here and I am not in the program yet. My classes are totally different. I went from molecular biology and other science courses to English classes like Eroticism and Love in the Middle Ages.

Ray Kurzweil

The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology

Roger Hanlon

Scientists should look to nature and biology for well-defined answers, especially in fields like optics.

Richard Ellis

The Search For The Giant Squid: An authoritative look at the biology and mythology of the world's most elusive sea creature.

Claes Wahlestedt

You're showing a new part of biology that was completely unknown. Future drugs might work more effectively by targeting RNA rather than proteins.

Eric Kandel

I've been around a long time, and I've been interested in memory for a long time. And one of my earlier interests in molecular biology of memory led me to define the switch that converts short term to long term memory.
