Text Quotes
In the scale of life there is a gradual decline in physical variability, as the organism has gathered into itself resources for meeting the exigencies of changing external conditions; and that while in the mindless and motionless plant these resources are at a minimum, their maximum is reached in the mind of man, which, at length, rises to a level with the total order and powers of nature, and in its scientific comprehension of nature is a summary, an epitome of the world  (Organism Quotes) A corporation is a living organism; it has to continue to shed its skin. Methods have to change. Focus has to change. Values have to change. The sum total of those changes is transformation  (Organism Quotes) It is a fascinating and provocative thought that a body of water deserves to be considered as an organism in its own right  (Organism Quotes) By being able to write a genome and plug it into an organism, the software, if you will, changes the hardware  (Organism Quotes) A disease is never a mere loss or excess. There is always a reaction on the part of the organism or individual to restore, replace or compensate for and to preserve its identity, however strange the means may be  (Organism Quotes) Now, a living organism is nothing but a wonderful machine endowed with the most marvellous properties and set going by means of the most complex and delicate mechanism  (Organism Quotes) Every creature alive on the earth today represents an unbroken line of life that stretches back to the first primitive organism to appear on this planet; and that is about three billion years  (Organism Quotes) A cell of a higher organism contains a thousand different substances, arranged in a complex system. This great organized system was not discovered by chemical or physical methods; they are inadequate to its refinement and delicacy and complexity  (Organism Quotes) The cell, this elementary keystone of living nature, is far from being a peculiar chemical giant molecule or even a living protein and as such is not likely to fall prey to the field of an advanced chemistry. The cell is itself an organism, constituted of many small units of life  (Organism Quotes) The techniques have galloped ahead of the concepts. We have moved away from studying the complexity of the organism; from processes and organisation to composition  (Organism Quotes) The partition separating life from death is so tenuous. The unbelievable fragility of our organism suggests a vision on a screen: a kind of mist condenses itself into a human shape, lasts a moment and scatters  (Organism Quotes) For what lies inside the human being is the whole spiritual cosmos in condensed form. In our inner organism we have an image of the entire cosmos  (Organism Quotes) The probability for the chance of formation of the smallest, simplest form of living organism known is 1 to 10340,000,000... The size of this figure is truly staggering, since there are only supposed to be approximately 10 electrons in the whole universe!  (Organism Quotes) Our task now is to resynthesize biology; put the organism back into its environment; connect it again to its evolutionary past; and let us feel that complex flow that is organism, evolution, and environment united. The time has come for biology to enter the nonlinear world  (Organism Quotes) It has taken four billion years of evolution to generate this kind of organism with this kind of brain, and yet we wake up in the morning and feel bored  (Organism Quotes) The conscious experience of being a subject arises when a single organism learns to enslave itself  (Organism Quotes) Society is not merely a select body of spiritual or intellectual persons, but a great organism composed of all kinds of members, a net containing bad and good  (Organism Quotes) I almost think that hope is for the soul what breathing is for the living organism. Where hope is lacking the soul dries up and withers  (Organism Quotes) Everyone recognizes a distinction between knowledge and wisdom... Wisdom is a kind of knowledge. It is knowledge of the nature, career, and consequences of human values. Since these cannot be separated from the human organism and the social scene, the moral ways of man cannot be understood without knowledge of the ways of things and institutions  (Organism Quotes) By ecology we understand the total science of the connections of the organism to the surrounding external world  (Organism Quotes) The physical organism itself then, even as you know it, exists and moves and reacts and influences, and is influenced by, many fields or planes of actuality; and its existence as you know it in your universe is determined by and dependent upon its existence within other fields, of which man is still intellectually ignorant  (Organism Quotes) The individual organs follow the same pattern as the whole organism, i.e. they have their period of growth, of stationary, maximum activity and then of aging decline  (Organism Quotes) The human being is a surprisingly resilient organism. We are impelled toward health not sickness. Your spirit, as surely as your body, will try to heal... So you should not fear tragedy and suffering. Like love, they make you more a part of the human family. From them can come your greatest creativity. They are the fire that burns you pure  (Organism Quotes) The only way out is spiritual, intellectual, and emotional revolution in which, finally, we learn to experience first hand the interloping connections between person and person, organism and organism, action and consequence  (Organism Quotes) It has become inordinately difficult even to begin to think about constructing a naturalistic theory of the evolution of that first reproducing organism  (Organism Quotes) We torture and kill two billion sentient living beings every week. 10,000 entire species are wiped out every year because of the actions of one, and we are now facing the sixth mass extinction in cosmological history. If any other organism did this, a biologist would consider them a virus  (Organism Quotes) Like an organism, photography was born whole. It is in our progressive discovery of it that its history lies  (Organism Quotes) A leader who accepts the outside financing of his movement is like the man who accustoms his body to live on medication. To the extent an organism is administered medication, to the same extent it is condemned to being unable to react on its own. Moreover, when it is deprived of the medication, it dies; it is at the mercy of the pharmacist! Likewise, a political movement is at the mercy of those who finance it. These could cease their financing at any given moment and the movement, unaccustomed to living on its own, dies  (Organism Quotes) The more highly adapted an organism becomes, the less adaptable it is to any new change  (Organism Quotes) Man is not a machine,... although man most certainly processes information, he does not necessarily process it in the way computers do. Computers and men are not species of the same genus.... No other organism, and certainly no computer, can be made to confront genuine human problems in human terms... However much intelligence computers may attain, now or in the future, theirs must always be an intelligence alien to genuine human problems and concerns  (Organism Quotes)
