597 Quotes About Biology

I like to define biology as the history of the earth and all its life — past, present, and future. To understand biology is to understand that all life is linked to the earth from which it came; it is to understand that the stream of life, flowing out of the dim past into the uncertain future, is in reality a unified force, though composed of an infinite number and variety of separate lives.

Does the human brain create its own reality? It is correct that everybody lives in their own reality bubble. But to be more precise. Reality is one, bubbles are many. At any time, there is only oneself leaving space between itself so not to be by itself. What does it mean? Self has created the bodymind complex so not to be by itself.

It took me fifteen minutes to realise it was about orgasms. I read until lunch and then hid the book on the shelf.

Life for me is just a result of experiments being performed by far more developed creatures.

Many schools, colleges and universities have turned into biologically toxic radio frequency (RF) radiation antenna parks.

Our economic models are projections and arrows when they should be circles. To define perpetual growth on a finite planet as the sole measure of economic well-being is to engage in a form of slow collective suicide. To deny or exclude from the calculus of governance and economy the costs of violating the biological support systems of life is the logic of delusion.

I predict we will abolish suffering throughout the living world. Our descendants will be animated by gradients of genetically pre-programmed well-being that are orders of magnitude richer than today's peak experiences.

In the history of ideas, it's repeatedly happened that an idea, developed in one area for one purpose, finds an unexpected application elsewhere. Concepts developed purely for philosophy of mathematics turned out to be just what you needed to build a computer. Statistical formulae for understanding genetic change in biology are now applied in both economics and in programming.
