In the present state of our knowledge it would be useless to attempt to speculate on the remote cause of the electrical energy... its relation to chemical affinity is however sufficiently evident. May it not be identical with it and an essential property of matter?

The properties which differentiate living matter from any kind of inorganic imitation may be instinctively felt but can hardly be formulated without expert knowledge.

And indeed this theme has been at the centre of all my research since 1943 both because of its intrinsic fascination and my conviction that a knowledge of sequences could contribute much to our understanding of living matter.

Education is a private matter between the person and the world of knowledge and experience and has little to do with school or college.
