“Perfect health, long life and eternal youth are not the random genetic blessings of a chaotic or capricious universe, but natural birthrights… — Anonymous Copy Share Image
I took biology in high school and didn't like it at all. It was focused on memorization. ... I didn't appreciate that… — Francis Collins Copy Share Image
You can't really be scientifically literate if you don't understand evolution. And you can't be an educated member of society if you… — Eugenie Scott Copy Share Image
The ultimate aim of the modern movement in biology is in fact to explain all biology in terms of physics and chemistry. — Francis Crick Copy Share Image
