Dye Molecule

Famous quotes containing the words dye and/or molecule:

    It will help me nothing
    To plead mine innocence, for that dye is on me
    Which makes my whit’st part black.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    We can come up with a working definition of life, which is what we did for the Viking mission to Mars. We said we could think in terms of a large molecule made up of carbon compounds that can replicate, or make copies of itself, and metabolize food and energy. So that’s the thought: macrocolecule, metabolism, replication.
    Cyril Ponnamperuma (b. 1923)
