There's no such thing as ageing gracefully. I don't meet people who want to get Alzheimer's disease, or who want to get cancer or arthritis or any of the other things that afflict the elderly. Ageing is bad for you, and we better just actually accept that. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000050444
The aim is to postpone frailty, postpone degenerative disease, debilitation and so on and thereby shorten the period at the end of life, which is passed in a decrepit or disabled state, while extending life as a whole. -- Aubrey De Grey

It's not just about life, of course; it's about healthy life. Getting frail and miserable and dependent is no fun, whether or not dying may be fun. -- Aubrey De Grey

Most scientists will get serious media exposure about twice in their entire career. And they'll get that because they've actually done an experiment that was interesting. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000698577
Wikipedia was a big help for science, especially science communication, and it shows no sign of diminishing in importance. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000767204
What I actually wanted to do with my life is make a difference to the world. That led me into science very quickly. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000787089
It has always appalled me that really bright scientists almost all work in
the most competitive fields, the ones in which they are making the least
difference. In other words, if they were hit by a truck, the same
discovery would be made by somebody else about 10 minutes later. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000809043
I don't often meet people who want to suffer cardiovascular disease or whatever, and we get those things as a result of the lifelong accumulation of various types of molecular and cellular damage. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000855288
Public enthusiasm for new advances is a key ingredient in influencing policy-makers to stimulate follow-up work with suitable funding, and it can be achieved far faster now that interested non-specialists can explore new research autonomously and can also be appealed to directly by scientists. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000866909
There's nothing wrong with making the best of one's declining years, but what does annoy me is the fatalism. Now that we're seriously in range of finding therapies that actually work against ageing, this apathy, of course, becomes an enormous part of the problem. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000886688
There is no difference between saving lives and extending lives, because in both cases we are giving people the chance of more life. -- Aubrey De Grey

If you look at winners of the Nobel Prize in biology, you'll find a fair smattering of people who don't know how to work a pipette. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 000997594
What I'm after is not living to 1,000. I'm after letting people avoid death for as long as they want to. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001028525
The biggest handicap in research is an ability to think outside the box. The handicap is being encumbered by all the conventional wisdom in a given field. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001078227
As far as I'm concerned, ageing is humanity's worst problem, by some serious distance. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001084073
In the eye, there is a type of junk that accumulates in the back of the retina that eventually causes us to go blind. It's called age-related macular degeneration. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001129444
I'm the chief science officer of a foundation that works on the application of regenerative medicine to the problem of aging. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001189488
Some things tend not to work so well for science - things that rely on substantial written contributions by key experts are a case in point - but even there I tend to keep an open mind, because it may just be a case of finding the right formula. -- Aubrey De Grey

Ever since we invented fire and the wheel, we've been demonstrating both our ability and our inherent desire to fix things that we don't like about ourselves and our environment. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001210499
My approach is to start from the straightforward principle that our body is a machine. A very complicated machine, but none the less a machine, and it can be subjected to maintenance and repair in the same way as a simple machine, like a car. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001293836
[Anti-aging therapies will] never be perfect, but we'll be able to fix the things that 200-year-olds die of before we have any 200-year-olds, and the same for 300 and 400 and so on. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001406256
The right to choose to live or to die is the most fundamental right there is; conversely, the duty to give others that opportunity to the best of our ability is the most fundamental duty there is. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001576501
The scientific method actually correctly uses the most direct evidence as the most reliable, because that's the way you are least likely to get led astray into dead ends and to misunderstand your data. -- Aubrey De Grey
Aubrey De Grey Quotes : pic 001679444
