“In biology, nothing is clear, everything is too complicated, everything is a mess, and just when you think you understand something, you peel off a layer and find deeper complications beneath. Nature is anything but simple.”

― The Hot Zone: The Terrifying True Story of the Origins of the Ebola Virus
“To mess around with Ebola is an easy way to die. Better to work with something safer, such as anthrax.”

― The Hot Zone: The Terrifying True Story of the Origins of the Ebola Virus
“The earth is attempting to rid itself of an infection by human parasite.”
