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."
- "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."
- "Any powerful technology can be abused."

- "The conscience of the world is so guilty that it always assumes that people who investigate heresies must be heretics; just as if a doctor who studies leprosy must be a leper. Indeed, it is only recently that science has been allowed to study anything without reproach."― Aleister Crowley
- "I could write historical fiction, or science fiction, or a mystery but since I find it fascinating to research the clues of some little know period and develop a story based on that, I will probably continue to do it."― Jean M. Auel
