Quotes by Aarathi Prasad (?)

“There are a lot of things animals do that we can't," she says, "like flying and camouflage, and we've adapted, through technology ... It's funny when people say something is natural, or not. Compared with what? Compared with when? It's this vanity of humans to think of themselves as special, as being at the height of evolution. We're not. We're obviously still adapting.”
― Aarathi Prasad, Like a Virgin: How Science Is Redesigning The Rules Of Sex
