"I had been impressed by the fact that biological systems were based on molecular machines and that we were learning to design and build these sorts of things."

"But if we can manage it so people don't have things forced on them that they don't want, I think there's every reason to believe things can settle out in a situation that is recognizably better than the one we're stuck in today."
