The Art Of Science Is As Important

What Is ... Important Is That We - Number One: Learn To Live With Each Other. Number Two: Try To Bring Out The Best In Each Other.

Risks, I Like To Say, Always Pay Off. You Learn What To Do, Or What Not To Do.

My Ambition Was To Bring To Bear On Medicine A Chemical Approach. I Did That By Chemical Manipulation Of Viruses And Chemical Ways Of Thinking In Biomedical Research.

We Were Told In One Lecture That It Was Possible To Immunize Against Diphtheria And Tetanus By The Use Of Chemically Treated Toxins, Or Toxoids. And The Following Lecture, We Were Told That For Immunization Against A Virus Disease, You Have To Experience The Infection, And That You Could Not Induce Immunity With The So-called "killed" Or Inactivated, Chemically Treated Virus Preparation. Well, Somehow, That Struck Me. What Struck Me Was That Both Statements Couldn't Be True. And I Asked Why This Was So, And The Answer That Was Given Was In A Sense, 'because.' There Was No Satisfactory Answer.

What You See In Living Systems, And In Genetic Systems, Is That The Genes Are Already There, Having Arisen In The Course Of Time, And When They Are Needed They Become Activated. If They Had To Be Invented, The Time Would Be Too Late.
