• Since Pawlow [Pavlov] and his pupils have succeeded in causing the secretion of saliva in the dog by means of optic and acoustic signals, it no longer seems strange to us that what the philosopher terms an 'idea' is a process which can cause chemical changes in the body.

• In the 24 hours since this time yesterday, over 200,000 acres of rainforest have been destroyed in our world. Fully 13 million tons of toxic chemicals have been released into our environment. Over 45,000 people have died from starvation, 38,000 of them children. And more than 130 plant and animal species have been driven to extinction by the actions of humans. And all this just since yesterday.

• Demasiado a menudo, el ganadero culpa a las malas hierbas y busca una solución química en lugar de una solución de gestión; muy pocas veces encontramos un enfoque que combine la utilización sensata de saltamontes y larvas como un valioso suplemento de proteínas secas para los peces o los gránulos de comida, y una combinación de acondicionamiento del suelo, tala y despoblación o resiembra para restaurar el equilibrio de las especies.

• Life from nonlife, like wine from water, has long been considered a miracle wrought by gods or God. Now it is seen to be the near-inevitable consequence of our thermal and chemical circumstances.

• My hand moves because certain forces--electric, magnetic, or whatever 'nerve-force' may prove to be--are impressed on it by my brain. This nerve-force, stored in the brain, would probably be traceable, if Science were complete, to chemical forces supplied to the brain by the blood, and ultimately derived from the food I eat and the air I breathe.

• Cada hora puede extinguirse una especie animal o vegetal. Todas las especies están condenadas a la extinción, pero el hombre, a través del desarrollo mundial, la matanza de animales para obtener alimentos o beneficios, el uso de productos químicos tóxicos como los pesticidas o los residuos industriales, acelerará la extinción de plantas y animales y el resultado será un entorno más hostil para el hombre.

• We [My Chemical Romance] didn't push ourselves to that next level. I think we purposefully held ourselves back, feeling like maybe in order to advance, we need to regress. There was definitely a sense of fear within the band about taking that next step.

• La variante biológica fundamental es el ADN. Por eso, la definición de Mendel del gen como portador invariable de los rasgos hereditarios, su identificación química por Avery (confirmada por Hershey) y la elucidación por Watson y Crick de la base estructural de su invariabilidad replicativa son, sin duda alguna, los descubrimientos más importantes jamás realizados en biología. A esto hay que añadir la teoría de la selección natural, cuya certeza y plena significación sólo fueron establecidas por esas teorías posteriores.

• I understood that our entire universe is contained in the mind and the spirit. We may choose not to find access to it, we may even deny its existence, but it is indeed there inside us, and there are chemicals that can analyze its availability.

• Every chemical substance, whether natural or artificial, falls into one of two major categories, according to the spatial characteristic of its form. The distinction is between those substances that have a plane of symmetry and those that do not. The former belong to the mineral, the latter to the living world.

• Estamos cerca de la muerte. Hay caras y cuerpos como gusanos atiborrados en la pista de baile, en la autopista, en la ciudad, en el estadio; son una hueste de máquinas químicas que tragan el producto de fábricas químicas, aspirinas, conservantes, estimulantes, relajantes, y exhalan sus desechos químicos en un aire contaminado. La sensación de una larga última noche sobre la civilización ha vuelto.

• Si haces una sola cosa -una sola elección consciente- que pueda cambiar el mundo, hazte ecológico. Compra alimentos ecológicos. Deje de utilizar productos químicos y empiece a apoyar a los agricultores ecológicos. Ninguna otra elección que puedas hacer para mejorar la salud de tu familia y del planeta tendrá mayores repercusiones positivas para nuestro futuro.

• Me gustaría empezar destacando la importancia de las superficies. Es en una superficie donde se producen muchos de nuestros fenómenos más interesantes y útiles. Vivimos, por ejemplo, en la superficie de un planeta. Es en una superficie donde se produce la catálisis de las reacciones químicas. Es esencialmente en la superficie de una planta donde la luz solar se convierte en azúcar. En electrónica, la mayoría, si no todos, los elementos activos de los circuitos implican fenómenos de no equilibrio que ocurren en las superficies. Gran parte de la biología se ocupa de las reacciones en superficie.

• You can't participate in agriculture or redesign of aircraft for making them safer if you know nothing about it.  So, whenever a person says 'will I be participating in the new world?'  Only in areas that you can participate it.  Areas that you have competence in. I'm not talking about self confidence, I'm talking about the ability to solve problems.  Electrical, chemical, technical.  I don't know of any other kind of problem.

• Desde tiempos inmemoriales los hombres han saciado su sed con agua sin saber nada de sus componentes químicos. Del mismo modo, no necesitamos ser instruidos en todos los misterios de la doctrina, pero sí necesitamos recibir el Agua Viva que Jesucristo nos dará y que es la única que puede saciar nuestras almas.

• God judges men from the inside out; men judge men from the outside in. Perhaps to God, an extreme mental patient is doing quite well in going a month without murder, for he fought his chemical imbalance and succeeded; oppositely, perhaps the healthy, able and stable man who has never murdered in his life yet went a lifetime consciously, willingly never loving anyone but himself may then be subject to harsher judgment than the extreme mental patient. It might be so that God will stand for the weak and question the strong.

• Today, when we look at a brain, we see an intricate network of billions of neurons in constant, crackling communication, a chemical labyrinth that senses the world outside and within, produces love and sorrow, keeps our hearts beating and lungs breathing, composes our thoughts, and constructs our consciousness.

• I will now direct the attention of scientists to a previously unnoticed cause which brings about the metamorphosis and decomposition phenomena which are usually called decay, putrefaction, rotting, fermentation and moldering. This cause is the ability possessed by a body engaged in decomposition or combination, i.e. in chemical action, to give rise in a body in contact with it the same ability to undergo the same change which it experiences itself.
