Quotes about genes, page 7
The value is from innate feelings.
No music is so sweet
As the sound of applause.
The ego rules.
No sight is so cute
As the face of woman.
The lust rules.
No love is so pure
As the love of the mother.
The genes rule.

What does gene A do? What does gene B do? What does it do in different contexts? What's its importance? We know the answer to that for a very small number of genes, the ones that made themselves evident many years ago.

The public should know that the liability issues here have yet to be resolved, or even raised. If you're a farmer and you're growing a genetically engineering food crop, those genes are going to flow to the other farm.

But I'll tell you something: We had a big family discussion about it recently, my two sisters and I, and I pointed out that we all have the same genes as our mother and we're all susceptible to becoming alcoholics.

Sometimes it is claimed by those who argue that race is just a social construct that the human genome project shows that because people share roughly 99% of their genes in common, that there are no races. This is silly.

In Esse
(in actuality)
we are not what we think we are
we are not what others think we are
we are what nature determines us
we are what our genes determine us
we are what destiny shapes us

We are a spectacular, splendid manifestation of life. We have language.... We have affection We have genes for usefulness, and usefulness is about as close to a "common goal" of nature as I can guess at. And finally, and perhaps best of all, we have music.

We are a spectacular, splendid manifestation of life. We have language. . . . We have affection We have genes for usefulness, and usefulness is about as close to a 'common goal' of nature as I can guess at. And finally, and perhaps best of all, we have music.

Effortless Superiority
there he sits comfortably
without having to do
anything
much to my envy
he gets everything
love, fame, fortune
luxury, prestige, position
everything by the mere
color of his skin by the
mere sound of his name
by reason of his lineage
and genes and
his being
chosen

Virtues Of A Written Word
Patience
A virtue
Most valued
Through genes
Remitted to offsprings.
Written word
Held the sway
Messages were conveyed
Though delayed
No one could betray
Read and re-read
Several inferences drawn
Assumed art form
For courses prescribed
Pre-cursor for generations to arrive.
