Aubrey de Grey

There is no difference between saving lives and extending lives, because in both cases we are giving people the chance of more life.

Ever since we invented fire and the wheel, we've been demonstrating both our ability and our inherent desire to fix things that we don't like about ourselves and our environment.

What I'm after is not living to 1,000. I'm after letting people avoid death for as long as they want to.

That is the definition of equal justice under law: everyone gets a fair shot, everyone pays their fair share, and everyone plays by the same set of rules.

We were making the first step out of the age of chemistry and physics, and into the age of biology.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
