Sometimes it doesn't.

“You're going to see a lot of it. People getting ahead unfairly because of the category into which they were born: male or white or straight or rich. I'm in a few of those categories myself, which is why I make it a point to reach out and help those who aren't, those who might not necessarily be seen if I didn't make the effort. We need to shake this field up, you know? We need more people with different points of view and experiences and thought processes so we can keep innovating and moving ahead.”

“Les lois de la physique et de la chimie ne varient pas selon la santé ou la maladie. Mais ne pas vouloir admettre d'un point de vue biologique que la vie ne fait pas de différence entre ses états, c'est se condamner à ne pas même pouvoir distinguer un aliment d'un excrément. Certes, l'excrément d'un vivant peut être aliment pour un autre vivant, mais non pour lui. Ce qui distingue un aliment d'un excrément ce n'est pas une réalité physico-chimique, c'est une valeur biologique.”
