Biology Quotes

Biology is the least of what makes someone a mother.
Oprah Winfrey

Mother, Someone, Makes

If the relationship of father to son could really be reduced to biology, the whole earth would blaze with the glory of fathers and sons.
James A. Baldwin

Father, Son, Whole

A universe with a God would look quite different from a universe without one. A physics, a biology where there is a God is bound to look different. So the most basic claims of religion are scientific. Religion is a scientific theory.
Richard Dawkins

Religion, God, Different

You can free yourself from aging by reinterpreting your body and by grasping the link between belief and biology.
Deepak Chopra

Yourself, Free, Between

Nothing can be more incorrect than the assumption one sometimes meets with, that physics has one method, chemistry another, and biology a third.
Thomas Huxley

Nothing, Sometimes, Another

I am very comfortable with the idea that we can override biology with free will.
Richard Dawkins

Free, Idea, Override

My interest in biology was pretty much always on the philosophical side.
Richard Dawkins

Pretty, Interest, Side

The human mind evolved to believe in the gods. It did not evolve to believe in biology.
E. O. Wilson

Mind, Human, Gods

What's been gratifying is to live long enough to see molecular biology and evolutionary biology growing toward each other and uniting in research efforts.
E. O. Wilson

Live, Long, Enough

Many differences are rooted in biology and reinforced through culture, so it's important to acknowledge that. Because if you say men and women are the same and if male behaviour is the norm, and women are always expected to act like men, we will never be as good at being men as men are.
Dee Dee Myers

Good, Women, Men

Biology is now bigger than physics, as measured by the size of budgets, by the size of the workforce, or by the output of major discoveries; and biology is likely to remain the biggest part of science through the twenty-first century.
Freeman Dyson

Science, Through, Physics

The kitchen's a laboratory, and everything that happens there has to do with science. It's biology, chemistry, physics. Yes, there's history. Yes, there's artistry. Yes, to all of that. But what happened there, what actually happens to the food is all science.
Alton Brown

History, Food, Science

Biology has at least 50 more interesting years.
James D. Watson

Religion is the best antidote to the individualism of the consumer age. The idea that society can do without it flies in the face of history and, now, evolutionary biology.
Jonathan Sacks

Age, Religion, Best

Survival, in the cool economics of biology, means simply the persistence of one's own genes in the generations to follow.
Lewis Thomas

Cool, Means, Simply

And the actual achievements of biology are explanations in terms of mechanisms founded on physics and chemistry, which is not the same thing as explanations in terms of physics and chemistry.
Michael Polanyi

Same, Chemistry, Physics

No, I majored in biology, in a pre-med program.
Neil Diamond

Program, Majored

Biology always beats will power.
Mehmet Oz

After an extensive interview he arranged for my weaknesses in foreign languages to be over-looked and so I started a Biology degree at Birmingham in 1967.
Paul Nurse

After, Started, Foreign

In Darwin's time all of biology was a black box: not only the cell, or the eye, or digestion, or immunity, but every biological structure and function because, ultimately, no one could explain how biological processes occurred.
Michael Behe

Time, Black, Eye

Half a million women die each year around the world in pregnancy. It's not biology that kills them so much as neglect.
Nicholas D. Kristof

Women, Die, Around

It has become part of the accepted wisdom to say that the twentieth century was the century of physics and the twenty-first century will be the century of biology.
Freeman Dyson

Wisdom, Become, Physics

The need to make music, and to listen to it, is universally expressed by human beings. I cannot imagine, even in our most primitive times, the emergence of talented painters to make cave paintings without there having been, near at hand, equally creative people making song. It is, like speech, a dominant aspect of human biology.
Lewis Thomas

Music, Human, Cannot

Well, biology today as I see it has an amiable look - quite different from the 19th-century view that the whole arrangement of nature is hostile, 'red in tooth and claw.' That came about because people misread Darwin's 'survival of the fittest.'
Lewis Thomas

Nature, Today, Different

High school was interesting, because I went from a public school middle school to an academy where the first year we were doing Latin, chemistry, biology. I mean, I was woefully unprepared for the type of study.
Kyle Chandler

School, Mean, Study

We were making the first step out of the age of chemistry and physics, and into the age of biology.
Jeremy Rifkin

Age, Making, Step

Biology is the science. Evolution is the concept that makes biology unique.
Jared Diamond

Science, Makes, Unique

I'm an amateur science enthusiast. I'm not even a professional enthusiast. I don't know anything; I never even passed biology in high school. But I read the science section of the newspaper.
Dave Eggers

Science, School, High

I don't believe in technological determinism, especially not in biology and medicine. We have strong laws to keep doctors from monkeying around with humans that will remain in place. It's simply not true that everything that is technologically possible gets done.
Freeman Dyson

Strong, True, Done

Neuroscience is now a very important research area in biology. We are now understanding a lot more about brains in babies, as well as children and adults.
Robert Winston

Children, Important, Research
