You can now modify the genes of large animals, and the largest animal we are concerned with is the human.
I would love to have children, yes. Maybe even adopt them. I'm not sure that I should pass on my genes.
I've always admired Gene Hackman, Jack Lemmon, Jimmy Stewart, Gregory Peck. I'm showing my age here.
It's in our genes, we were built to wander.
If you can make yourself symmetrical, you're sending out a sign that you've got good genes, you've got a good upbringing and therefore you'll make a good mate.
And of course, identifying all human genes and proteins will have great medical significance.
For me, the meaning of life is pretty clear: Living things strive to pass their genes into the future.
Recently, results of the Human Genome Project have shattered one of Science's fundamental core beliefs, the concept of genetic determinism. We have been led to believe that our genes determine the character of our lives, yet new research surprisingly reveals that it is the character of our lives that controls our genes. Rather than being victims of our heredity, we are actually masters of our genome.
Nutrition trumps genes.
We are all predisposed to disease if we mismanage our genes.
I always wanted to be Gene Hackman and I always wanted to be, you know. . . I wanted to be one of these guys. I always wanted to be Bob Duvall.
Happiness is a choice; not just a matter of genes or good luck.
At the deepest level, all living things that have ever been looked at have the same DNA code. And many of the same genes.
The interior landscape responds to the character and subtlety of the exterior landscape; the shape of the individual mind is affected by the land as it is by genes.
I do not have a bride gene. I haven't been planning a wedding since I was 3. I never put a sheet on my head and pretended that it was a veil.
We haven't been able yet to determine in terms of genes what makes a human being a human and not another mammal.
It used to be thought that our genes were historically immutable and that it was not possible to imagine a conversation between culture and genetics.
A gene can be either dominant or recessive, depending on which type of gene it is.
Too much of my family has messed with drugs. Addiction might be in my genes, so I ain't never tryin' it. It's something you can't control, and I don't like things I can't control. I worked too hard to have it taken away for something stupid. I ain't gonna be laughed at the way I used to laugh at those crackheads.
Start-up success is not a consequence of good genes or being in the right place at the right time. Success can be engineered by following the right process, which means it can be learned, which means it can be taught.
