| | | "Life emerged, I suggest, not simple, but complex and whole, and has
remained complex and whole ever since ? not because of a mysterious élan
vital, but thanks to the simple, profound transformation of dead molecules
into an organization by which each molecule"s formation is catalyzed by
some other molecule in the organization. The secret of life, the
wellspring of reproduction, is not to be found in the beauty of
Watson-Crick pairing, but in the achievement of collective catalytic
closure. So, in another sense, life ? complex, whole, emergent ? is simple
after all, a natural outgrowth of the world in which we live." | | | Stuart Kauffman
