Trying to determine the structure of a protein by UV spectroscopy was like trying to determine the structure of a piano by listening to the sound it made while being dropped down a flight of stairs.

There is no scientific study more vital to man than the study of his own brain. Our entire view of the universe depends on it.

Unfortunately it makes the unambiguous determination of triplets by these methods much more difficult than would be the case if there were only one triplet for each amino acid.

A comparison between the triplets tentatively deduced by these methods with the changes in amino acid sequence produced by mutation shows a fair measure of agreement.

It is essential to understand our brains in some detail if we are to assess correctly our place in this vast and complicated universe we see all around us.

It has yet to be shown by direct biochemical methods, as opposed to the indirect genetic evidence mentioned earlier, that the code is indeed a triplet code.

You can do reverse engineering, but you can’t do reverse hacking.

A final proof of our ideas can only be obtained by detailed studies on the alterations produced in the amino acid sequence of a protein by mutations of the type discussed here.

The dangerous man is the one who has only one idea, because then he'll fight and die for it.

It now seems very likely that many of the 64 triplets, possibly most of them, may code one amino acid or another, and that in general several distinct triplets may code one amino acid.

It now seems certain that the amino acid sequence of any protein is determined by the sequence of bases in some region of a particular nucleic acid molecule.

If every day at work feels like a Friday, then you are doing what you were meant to do.

The little things are important, Mr. Wind-Up Bird,

The more I love the person, the more rejection I recieved.

My dad was nothing but a bingo call.

It's normal that countries work for their own benefit, political and economic.

A multitude of rulers is not a good thing. Let there be one ruler, one king.

And now comes Pete Martell in Twin Peaks and he's just a nice guy.

Compassion is not feeling sorry for others. It's not soft. It requires an intellectual effort.

Just because you’re a Believer, doesn’t mean your safe from the Hell-fire.

In Utah alone, ten million acres are open for business. Their policy is not about the public or the public's best interest. It is about the oil and gas corporations' best interests.
