Susan Cain
“a recent study found that people learn better after a quiet stroll through the woods than after a noisy walk down a city street.”
― Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

Alan Alda
“The person who’s communicating something is responsible for how well the other person follows him.”
― Alan Alda, If I Understood You, Would I Have This Look on My Face?: My Adventures in the Art and Science of Relating and Communicating

Jennifer A. Doudna
“an anticoagulant called antithrombin, and it is secreted in the milk of genetically modified goats. Another approved drug is isolated from the milk of transgenic rabbits, and in 2015, the FDA gave the go-ahead for a protein-based drug that is purified from the egg whites of transgenic chickens.56”
― Jennifer A. Doudna, A Crack in Creation: The New Power to Control Evolution

Alan Alda
“Being truly connected to the other person happens when we see them in a way that’s both emotional and rational, especially if we include listening with our eyes: looking for clues in the face, in gestures—in all the nonverbal signs of a state of mind. It’s complete and total listening. First, it’s understanding what another person is feeling—what’s usually called empathy—and second, an awareness of what another person is thinking—what scientists call Theory of Mind.”
― Alan Alda, If I Understood You, Would I Have This Look on My Face?: My Adventures in the Art and Science of Relating and Communicating

Jennifer A. Doudna
“Every person experiences roughly one million mutations throughout the body per second,18 and in a rapidly proliferating organ like the intestinal epithelium, nearly every single letter of the genome will have been mutated at least once in at least one cell by the time an individual turns sixty.”
― Jennifer A. Doudna, A Crack in Creation: The New Power to Control Evolution
