"Body concentrates order. It continuously self-repairs. Every five……" — Lynn Margulis

"Body concentrates order. It continuously self-repairs. Every five days you get a new stomach lining. You get a new liver every two months. Your skin replaces itself every six weeks. Every year, 98 percent of the atoms of your body are replaced. This non-stop chemical replacement, metabolism, is a sure sign of life."

— Lynn Margulis
