Walter Gilbert quotes
" Biology will relate every human gene to the genes of other animals and bacteria, to this great chain of being. "

Walter Gilbert

Walter Gilbert
" Everyone wants a hand in the outcome, a piece of the knowledge. "

Walter Gilbert
" I have the same sense of the power and virtue of knowledge that some people get from a religious background. "

Walter Gilbert

Walter Gilbert
" It's easier to change what you do than people think it is. If you don't change, your field changes around you. "

Walter Gilbert
" Science doesn't in the slightest depend on trust. It depends completely on the belief that you can demonstrate something for yourself. "

Walter Gilbert
" Scientists tend to be skeptical, but the weakness of the community of science is that it tends to move into preformed establishment modes that say this is the only way of doing science, the only valid view. "

Walter Gilbert
" The best project is one that asks a novel question. "

Walter Gilbert
" The human's place in the universe will be set in the scheme of evolution, the product of our biological inheritance. "

Walter Gilbert
" The idea that one can create a single subspecies that breeds true and is superhealthy and so on is an illusion. "
