A.J. Jacobs
“The strange fact that out of millions of people in the world, your mother and father met and decided to get married to each other. And out of the millions of sperm, that the one with your genes was the one that made it to the egg and fertilised the egg. I'll never forget it.”
A.J. Jacobs, Drop Dead Healthy: One Man's Humble Quest for Bodily Perfection

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
