It now seems very likely that many of the 64 triplets, possibly most of them, may code one amino acid or another, and that in general several distinct triplets may code one amino acid.

It now seems certain that the amino acid sequence of any protein is determined by the sequence of bases in some region of a particular nucleic acid molecule.

- Francis Crick

As is known, the sugar molecule as it passes through lactic acid can easily be split by purely chemical means.

- Eduard Buchner

If you've never seen an elephant ski, you've never been on acid.
