Text Quotes
Every orchid or rose or lizard or snake is the work of a dedicated and skilled breeder. There are thousands of people, amateurs and professionals, who devote their lives to this business. Now imagine what will happen when the tools of genetic engineering become accessible to these people  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) I am trying to get at the moral arguments and the ethical status of various attempts at enhancement, or genetic engineering, or the bid for designer children. But there are implications for society at large.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) I do think it is very important that the religious communities do try to bring their teachings and their insights to bear on the stem cell debate and on the debate about genetic engineering.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) I see nothing wrong ethically with the idea of correcting single gene defects through genetic engineering. But I am concerned about any other kind of intervention, for anything else would be an experiment, which would impose our will on future generations and take unreasonable chances with their welfare ... Thus such intervention is beyond the scope of consideration.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Traits acquired during one’s lifetime - muscles built up in the gym, for example - cannot be passed on to the next generation. Now with technology, as it happens, we might indeed be able to transfer some of our acquired traits on to our selected offspring by genetic engineering.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Some says that genetic engineering is within the scope of the God! Well, it was so, that area would have been encircled with the impassable high walls! Mankind cannot lose its time with this kind of religious craps! Genetic engineering is our garden!  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) My worry is that other advances in science may result in other means of mass destruction, maybe more readily available even than nuclear weapons. Genetic engineering is quite a possible area, because of these dreadful developments that are taking place there.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Nuclear weapons need large facilities, but genetic engineering can be done in a small lab. You can’t regulate every lab in the world. The danger is that either by accident or design, we create a virus that destroys us.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) If vampires were a separate species, and they were into genetic engineering, what would they engineer for?  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Incurable diseases will eventually force mankind to justify disruptive nanotech and genetic engineering.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Modern genetic engineering makes producing GMO food products relatively easy. GMOs can improve crop yield and greatly enhance the nutritional value of those same crops.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Brave New World’ dealt with a kind of proto-genetic engineering of the unborn, through really, as many dystopias do, it dealt with totalitarianism. The 1997 film ‘Gattaca’ updated ‘Brave New World,’ bringing us to a future where genetic testing determined your job, your wealth, your status in life.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Genetic engineering is a result of science advancement, so I don’t think that in itself is bad. If used wisely, genetics can be beneficial, but they can be abused, too.  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) By the time we, consumers, are aware of processes like genetic engineering, they’re already being done. It’s sort of like the war in Iraq: By the time we know about it, it’s almost a fait accompli. And that’s certainly true with science  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Tragically, some people are genetically more susceptible than others to agripoisons and industrial pollutants. Genetic engineering to correct these medical problems is a narrow (reductionistic) and instrumental (mechanistic) response to a problem that is fundamentally conceptual: namely, our attitude toward life and our mistreatment of the Earth, plants, and animals-and ourselves in the process  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) We have grown accustomed to the wonders of clean water, indoor plumbing, laser surgery, genetic engineering, artificial joints, replacement body parts, and the much longer lives that accompany them. Yet we should remember that the vast majority of humans ever born died before the age of 10 from an infectious disease  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) The benefits of medical research are real - but so are the potential horrors of genetic engineering and embryo manipulation. We devise heart transplants, but do little for the 15 million who die annually of malnutrition and related diseases. Our cleverness has grown prodigiously - but not our wisdom  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) The pressures for human cloning are powerful; but, although it seems likely that somebody, at some time, will attempt it, we need not assume that it will ever become a common or significant feature of human life  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) It is difficult to imagine a greater imposition than adding genes to future generations that changes the nature of future people  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Genetic engineering has never been about saving the world, it’s about controlling the world  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) If I were 21 years old, I would go into biotechnology or genetic engineering  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) I think the ethics and morals of genetic engineering are very complicated. It intrigues me  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) The cloning of humans is on most of the lists of things to worry about from science, along with behaviour control, genetic engineering, transplanted heads, computer poetry and the unrestrained growth of plastic flowers  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Genetic engineering is a result of science advancement, so I don’t think that in itself is bad  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) But while doing that I’d been following a variety of fields in science and technology, including the work in molecular biology, genetic engineering, and so forth  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) We are intelligent atoms. We are intelligent organic structures. We can change who we are. We can heal ourselves. With genetic engineering, we are considering changing the physiological structure of the body  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) Nuclear weapons need large facilities, but genetic engineering can be done in a small lab. You can’t regulate every lab in the world. The danger is that either by accident or design, we create a virus that destroys us  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) One of the really remarkably beneficial aspects of genetic engineering is that much of the previous methodology for controlling pests and so forth is through chemicals that affect a very broad spectrum of insects, for example, or fungicides that control fungi  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) I see nothing wrong ethically with the idea of correcting single gene defects through genetic engineering. But I am concerned about any other kind of intervention, for anything else would be an experiment, which would impose our will on future generations and take unreasonable chances with their welfare... Thus such intervention is beyond the scope of consideration  (Genetic Engineering Quotes) I suspect any worries about genetic engineering may be unnecessary. Genetic mutations have always happened naturally, anyway  (Genetic Engineering Quotes)
