What Neri Oxman actually said
- Neri Oxman Designer, architect and scientist

And we should never get to a point where we evolve life for the service of mankind at the risk of these wonderful creatures across the across the kingdom of life. I don't think about the same kind of ethical range when I think about bacteria.
