On privacy issues, it's just like hundreds of years ago when people said, 'I would rather put my money under my pillow than in a bank.'

In the past, when we've tried gene therapy, we haven't had tools that have allowed targeted gene correction.
If you sequence a cancerous tumor, you should be able to tailor the therapy according to the root cause of the cancer.

Gene Wolfe is the greatest writer in the English language alive today. Let me repeat that: Gene Wolfe is the greatest writer in the English language alive today! I mean it.

I would still very much love to change the world, and there are three or four neurological diseases that I've got a personal grudge against. I wouldn't mind mopping them up in one amazing experiment to come out of my lab, and I certainly wouldn't mind transforming hundreds of thousands of people's lives overnight with some discovery.
Hundreds would never have known want if they had not first known waste.
