3 quotes from The Gene

  • "A gene is a story, a narrative in the language of biology, written in the codes of nucleotides that dictate our very existence."
  • "The discovery of the gene has transformed our understanding of heredity, but it has also exposed the limits of what we can control and the intricacies of what we inherit from our ancestors."
  • "Genes are not destiny, but they shape the possibilities of our lives, intertwining biology with the environment and experiences that influence our identity."
