  • Science has always been my preoccupation and when you think a breakthrough is possible, it is terribly exciting.

  • We're not all equal, it's simply not true. That isn't science.

  • The ever quickening advances of science made possible by the success of the Human Genome Project will also soon let us see the essences of mental disease. Only after we understand them at the genetic level can we rationally seek out appropriate therapies for such illnesses as schizophrenia and bipolar disease.

  • If you succeed with your first dream, it helps. You know, people trust you, possibly, for the second one. They give you a chance to play out your second one.
