More From K. Eric Drexler
- "Protein engineering is a technology of molecular machines – of molecular machines that are part of replicators – and so it comes from an area that already raises some of the issues that nanotechnology will raise."
- "You can find academic and industrial groups doing some relevant work, but there isn’t a focus on building complex molecular systems. In that respect, Japan is first, Europe is second, and we’re third."
- "But while doing that I’d been following a variety of fields in science and technology, including the work in molecular biology, genetic engineering, and so forth."

- "IBM’s long-standing mantra is ‘Think.’ What has always made IBM a fascinating and compelling place for me, is the passion of the company, and its people, to apply technology and scientific thinking to major societal issues."― Ginni Rometty
- "The laws of physics should allow us to arrange things molecule by molecule and even atom by atom, and at some point it was inevitable that we would develop a technology that would let us do this."― Ralph Merkle
- "Don’t underestimate questions from the crowd; technology has made voters more informed than ever."― Ron Fournier
