“The greatest single achievement of nature to date was surely the invention of the molecule DNA.”
Lewis Thomas

Sol Luckman
“Epigenetics reveals that your body isn’t a genetically predetermined flesh robot, but is regulated by a set of gene switches that can be turned on or off—by you—mindfully. Ergo, our genes aren’t our destiny. We have far more control over their expression than most ever imagined.”
Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality
