    “Don’t you see the danger, John, inherent in what you’re doing here. Genetic power is the most awesome force the planet’s ever seen but you wield it like a kid that’s found his dad’s gun…I’ll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you’re using here: it didn’t require any discipline to attain it. You know, you read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn’t earn the knowledge for yourselves so you don’t take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox and now you’re selling it!”

    I saw a funny video from a zookeeper basically saying everything would go much better if the Dinosaurs weren’t bored. Of course the raptors are testing the cage, it’s fucking tiny and they have nothing better to do!
