Molecular genetics can show off some surprising relationships like, for example, the close relationship of whales to hippopotamuses, which I think nobody ever guessed until molecular data was looked at. The closest relatives of whales are hippopotamuses, even closer than any other cloven-hoofed animals.
Richard Dawkins

Who do you think made the first stone spears? The Asperger guy. If you were to get rid of all the autism genetics, there would be no more Silicon Valley.
Temple Grandin

We know evolution happened not because of transitional fossils such as A. natans but because of the convergence of evidence from such diverse fields as geology, paleontology, biogeography, comparative anatomy and physiology, molecular biology, genetics, and many more.
Michael Shermer
Image
Human beings, thanks to culture and genetics, are inclined to be pessimistic, fearful, skeptical and believers in conspiracy theories. We also don't like change.
Seth Godin

The difference of somebody of winning and losing, has nothing to do with their genetics, has nothing to do with their potential.

In running, I know that I can train as much as I want and Im never going to break the world record for the five miles. Its partly genetics Im just not built for it. But if I worked really hard, I might be able to cut my time by half. Could I do the same thing with my mind and my well-being?
Stefan Sagmeister

The Greek idea of fate is moira, which means portion. Fate rules a portion of your life. But there is more to life than just fate. There is also genetics, environment, economics, and so on. So it's not all written in the book before you get here, such that you don't have to do anything. That's fatalism.

The genetics of autism are real, but there are also environmental triggers.

A solid foundation in genetics is increasingly important for everyone.
Anne Wojcicki

The fundamental problem in the origin of species is not the origin of differences in appearance, since these arise at the level of the geographical race, but the origin of genetic segregation. The test of species-formation is whether, when two forms meet, they interbreed and merge, or whether they keep distinct.

They say your genetics are going to set your direction regardless of what happens, but I think there's more to it than that.
Charles Koch

I do not believe we can blame genetics for adultery, homosexuality, dishonesty and other character flaws.
Jerry Falwell

Our own genomes carry the story of evolution, written in DNA, the language of molecular genetics, and the narrative is unmistakable.
Kenneth R. Miller

Genetics loads the gun, lifestyle pulls the trigger.
Caldwell Esselstyn
Image
Beadle believed that genetics were inseparable from chemistry-more precisely, biochemistry. They were, he said, two doors leading to the same room.
Warren Weaver
Image
I tried to conform to what everyone thinks is beautiful. But my genetics gave me a curvy figure, and I've come to understand that in the Latina culture, that is beautiful.
Demi Lovato

We all know interspecies romance is weird.
Tim Burton
Image
There's no biological reason why a man shouldn't just try to have sex with every woman he meets - all of them get pregnant and your genetics are winning.

Human well-being is not a random phenomenon. It depends on many factors - ranging from genetics and neurobiology to sociology and economics. But, clearly, there are scientific truths to be known about how we can flourish in this world. Wherever we can have an impact on the well-being of others, questions of morality apply.
Sam Harris
Image
She taught me all about real sacrifice. That it should be done from love, not misplace disgust for another person's genetics.
Veronica Roth
Image
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.
Nicholas A. Christakis

A big tree seemed even more beautiful to me when I imagined thousands of tiny photosynthesis machines inside every leaf. So I went to MIT and worked on bacteria because that's where people knew the most about these switches, how to control the genetics.
Cynthia Kenyon

Genetics help to some degree, but the most important thing is the mind and the spirit. These two are even more powerful than physical characteristics that are passed on.
Serge Nubret

I'm one of those people you hate because of genetics. It's the truth.
