Big questions get big answers (Francis Crick Quotes)
For simplicity one can think of the class as having one extra base at some point or other in the genetic message and the - class as having one too few. (Francis Crick Quotes)
Free will is located in or near the anterior cingulate sulcus (Francis Crick Quotes)
We’ve discovered the secret of life (Francis Crick Quotes)
While Occam’s razor is a useful tool in the physical sciences, it can be a very dangerous implement in biology. It is thus very rash to use simplicity and elegance as a guide in biological research (Francis Crick Quotes)
It is one of the more striking generalizations of biochemistry - which surprisingly is hardly ever mentioned in the biochemical textbooks - that the twenty amino acids and the four bases, are, with minor reservations, the same throughout Nature. (Francis Crick Quotes)
Our ... advantage was that we had evolved unstated but fruitful methods of collaboration ... If either of us suggested a new idea, the other, while taking it seriously, would attempt to demolish it in a candid but non-hostile manner. (Francis Crick Quotes)
The dangerous man is the one who has only one idea, because then he’ll fight and die for it.[As quoted in The New Yorker, April 25, 2011] (Francis Crick Quotes)
Since I essentially knew nothing, I had an almost completely free choice (Francis Crick Quotes)
It is notoriously difficult to define the word living (Francis Crick Quotes)
In my experience most mathematicians are intellectually lazy (Francis Crick Quotes)
You can do reverse engineering, but you can’t do reverse hacking (Francis Crick Quotes)
You’re nothing but a pack of neurons (Francis Crick Quotes)
Chance is the only source of true novelty (Francis Crick Quotes)
A busy life is a wasted life (Francis Crick Quotes)
Exact knowledge is the enemy of vitalism (Francis Crick Quotes)
God is a hacker, not an engineer (Francis Crick Quotes)
If revealed religions have revealed anything it is that they are usually wrong (Francis Crick Quotes)
Evolution is cleverer than you are (Francis Crick Quotes)
It now seems certain that the amino acid sequence of any protein is determined by the sequence of bases in some region of a particular nucleic acid molecule (Francis Crick Quotes)
The dangerous man is the one who has only one idea, because then he’ll fight and die for it (Francis Crick Quotes)
Finally one should add that in spite of the great complexity of protein synthesis and in spite of the considerable technical difficulties in synthesizing polynucleotides with defined sequences it is not unreasonable to hope that all these points will be clarified in the near future, and that the genetic code will be completely established on a sound experimental basis within a few years (Francis Crick Quotes)
One can say, looking at the papers in this symposium, that the elucidation of the genetic code is indeed a great achievement. It is, in a sense, the key to molecular biology because it shows how the great polymer languages, the nucleic acid language and the protein language, are linked together (Francis Crick Quotes)
It would appear that the number of nonsense triplets is rather low, since we only occasionally come across them. However this conclusion is less secure than our other deductions about the general nature of the genetic code (Francis Crick Quotes)
There is no form of prose more difficult to understand and more tedious to read than the average scientific paper (Francis Crick Quotes)
Protein synthesis is a central problem for the whole of biology, and that it is in all probability closely related to gene action (Francis Crick Quotes)
Exploratory research is really like working in a fog. You don’t know where you’re going. You’re just groping. Then people learn about it afterwards and think how straightforward it was (Francis Crick Quotes)
It is not easy to convey, unless one has experienced it, the dramatic feeling of sudden enlightenment that floods the mind when the right idea finally clinches into place (Francis Crick Quotes)
A good scientist values criticism almost higher than friendship: no, in science criticism is the height and measure of friendship (Francis Crick Quotes)
It now seems very likely that many of the 64 triplets, possibly most of them, may code one amino acid or another, and that in general several distinct triplets may code one amino acid (Francis Crick Quotes)
