"There's almost no food that isn't genetically modified. Genetic modification is the basis of all evolution. Things change because our planet is subjected to a lot of radiation, which causes DNA damage, which gets repaired, but results in mutations, which create a ready mixture of plants that people can choose from to improve agriculture."

"Jumping genes are fundamental because they're agents of change. Everybody knows that organisms evolve. What makes them evolve is that their genes are dynamic and in motion. A familiar example is the stripe-y corn - called Indian corn - that you buy in the fall."

"As people around the world become more affluent, they are demanding diets richer in animal protein, which will require ever more robust feed crop yields to sustain."

"India has the opportunity to be a leader in genetic engineering, It has institutions that no other country has."

"Wisdom principle 26 tells us that the journey of life is lesson 33."

"Hopes are but the dreams of those that wake."

"Kindness is the invisible thread that binds all kindred spirits together. In this truth lies the bedrock of all virtue."

"A purpose, an intention, a design, strikes everywhere even the careless, the most stupid thinker."
