Human beings & Complex Universe:
"people get the urge to actually cohabitate. I think it was an enormous design accomplishment of nature to take the complexity of the quadrillion atoms in our brain and get all that much activity and make it all look so simple: really like a China doll.
"Nature gave us proclivity to reproduce–until we were sure we had enough information so that we wouldn’t have to produce so many more. She wanted to be sure that we would learn about principles, as we are now, so that we can double our life expectancy, and maybe even learn how to replace all the parts–and just have a continuous human being. . . I don’t know. . . a continuous human being may be coming into the picture.
"We are discovering that the human is not the organic, but that we are the metaphysical–the mind, looking at relationships which are not in or of the parts but are just relationships between the parts.
“Mind is very, very different from the brain which is part of the physical, with the physical always being temporal, limited”
