Ligottian Quote

''In the last 10 years we have come to realize humans are more like worms than we ever imagined."

--Dr. Bruce Alberts, from a New York Times article,
12/11/1998

This is great. It should be fictionalized and put in the mouth of a sinister sounding doctor who appears in a philosophical horror story, which is then headed in turn by an epigraph consisting of the actual quote from the real scientist.
