Michael Crichton
We are all assumed, these days, to reside at one extreme of the opinion spectrum, or another. We are pro-abortion or anti-abortion. We are free traders or protectionists. We are pro-private sector or pro-government. We are feminists or chauvinists. But in the real world, few of us hold these extreme views. There is instead a spectrum of opinion.

Michael Crichton
You know what's wrong with scientific power? It's a form of inherited wealth. And you know what assholes congenitally rich people are.
Michael Crichton
I was raised with the idea that if you're not smart enough to do science you can do politics.
Michael Crichton
Conventional wisdom is invariably out of date. Because in the time it has taken to become conventional - to become what everyone believes - the world has moved on. Conventional wisdom is a remnant of the past.
Michael Crichton
It's not easy to cut through a human head with a hacksaw.
Michael Crichton
Good novels are not written, they're rewritten!
Michael Crichton
Science can't tell you why anything happens.
Michael Crichton
Because the history of evolution is that life escapes all barriers. Life breaks free. Life expands to new territories. Painfully, perhaps even dangerously. But life finds a way.
Michael Crichton
I want a news service that tells me what no one knows but is true nonetheless.
Michael Crichton
