- “Nothing in life is certain except death, taxes, and the second law of thermodynamics. All three are processes in which useful or accessible forms of some quantity, such as energy or money, are transformed into useless, inaccessible forms of the same quantity. That is not to say that these three processes don’t have fringe benefits: taxes pay for roads and schools; the second law of thermodynamics drives cars, computers, and metabolism; and death, at the very least, opens up tenured faculty positions.” ~ Seth Lloyd

Every animal soils its nest with the products of its metabolism if unable to move away. Space technology gives us for the first time the freedom to leave our nest, at least for certain functions, in order not to spoil it.” ~ Krafft Arnold Ehricke
- “What you want is to rev up your metabolism so that you are burning fat and calories, not preserving fat and calories.” ~ Kathy Freston

- “[In research on bacteria metabolism] we have indeed much the same position as an observer trying to gain an idea of the life of a household by careful scrutiny of the persons and material arriving or leaving the house; we keep accurate records of the foods and commodities left at the door and patiently examine the contents of the dust-bin and endeavor to deduce from such data the events occurring within the closed doors.” ~ Marjory Stephenson
- “I am blessed with a good metabolism, and as long as I work out, carbs don’t add to my weight. If I need a leaner, meaner look for a film, I go off carbs for a bit.” ~ Arjun Rampal

- “Myth is the practical metabolism of our soulish life, the logic of our obsessions and oversights for which we have no language or code. Myth is the “morality” that the ineffable puts upon us, our unaccountable imperatives, our inexplicably selective clarity, and obscurity, the mortal one-sidedness of our talents and wits, the passion and apathy that make such a transient passage through our hapless minds; that weave a pattern of fatality others will see before we do. Myth is distinctively human or sublime higher-order instinct, the “reason” in culture that reason knows not of.” ~ Kenny Smith
- “We living things are a late outgrowth of the metabolism of our galaxy. The carbon that enters into our composition was cooked in a remote past in a dying star. The waters of ancient seas set the pattern of ions in our blood. The ancient atmospheres molded our metabolism.” ~ George Wald
- “I’m a really skinny guy, I’m real tall, and I have a very high metabolism, so if I drink anything with caffeine in it, it makes me have an anxiety attack. So I can’t do coffee, or cola, or coffee ice cream, or any of those things. They make me feel like I’m going berserk.” ~ Mark Hosler
-
“I had the metabolism of a hummingbird on crack.” ~ Ilona Andrews
- “The question of place and climate is most closely related to the question of nutrition. Nobody is free to live everywhere; and whoever has to solve great problems that challenge all his strength actually has a very restricted choice in this matter. The influence of climate on our metabolism, its retardation, its acceleration, goes so far that a mistaken choice of place and climate can not only estrange a man from his task but can actually keep it from him: he never gets to see it.” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
- “When provoked, the itsy-bitsy invertebrates known as tardigrades can suspend their metabolism. In that state, they can survive temperatures of… 73 K for days on end, making them hardy enough to endure being stranded on Neptune. So the next time you need space travelers with the right stuff, you might want to choose yeast and tardigrades, and leave your astronauts, cosmonauts, and taikonauts at home.” ~ Neil deGrasse Tyson
- “We can come up with a working definition of life, which is what we did for the Viking mission to Mars. We said we could think in terms of a large molecule made up of carbon compounds that can replicate, or make copies of itself, and metabolize food and energy. So that’s the thought: macromolecule, metabolism, replication.” ~ Cyril Ponnamperuma , Metabolism quotes life
-

I make sure to do a combination of different things with my training.” ~ Miesha Tate

is the deepening shadow
of your presence; the silence a
process in the metabolism
of the being of love.” ~ R. S. Thomas - “The history of society is the history of the inventive labors that man alter man, alter his desires, habits, outlook, relationships both to other men and to physical nature, with which man is in perpetual physical and technological metabolism.” ~ Isaiah Berlin
-
“I have an enormous metabolism, so I’m lucky.” ~ Mads Mikkelsen
- “Body concentrates order. It continuously self-repairs. Every five days you get a new stomach lining. You get a new liver every two months. Your skin replaces itself every six weeks. Every year, 98 percent of the atoms of your body are replaced. This non-stop chemical replacement, metabolism, is a sure sign of life.” ~ Lynn Margulis
- “[A] re-elected McConnell, with a Republican majority, would, he says, emulate his model of majority leadership – the 16 years under a Democrat, Montana’s Mike Mansfield. He, like McConnell, had a low emotional metabolism but a subtle sense of the Senate’s singular role in the nation’s constitutional equilibrium.” ~ George Will
- “Of all the unexpected qualities of an unexpected universe, the sheer organizing power of animal and plant metabolism is one of the most remarkable. . . . Where it reaches its highest development, in the human mind, we forget it completely. . . . So important does nature regard this unseen combustion . . . that a starving man’s brain will be protected to the last while his body is steadily consumed.” ~ Loren Eiseley
-
“I’m very lucky with my metabolism.” ~ Shenae Grimes
- “Speaking biologically, fruit in a slightly shriveled state is holding its respiration and energy consumption down to the lowest possible level. It is like a person in meditation: his metabolism, respiration, and calorie consumption reach an extremely low level. Even if he fasts, the energy within the body will be conserved. In the same way, when mandarin oranges grow wrinkled, when fruit shrivels, when vegetables wilt, they are in the state that will preserve their food value for the longest possible time.” ~ Masanobu Fukuoka , Fast metabolism quotes
- “And while these pounds were being shed, while the physiological miracles were occurring with the heart and muscle and metabolism, psychological marvels were taking place as well. Just so, the world over, bodies, minds, and souls are constantly being born again, during miles on the road.” ~ George A. Sheehan
- “Looking at obesity without preconceived ideas, one would assume that the main trend of research should be directed toward an examination of abnormalities of the fat metabolism, since by definition excessive accumulation of fat is the underlying abnormality.” ~ Hilde Bruch
-
“Because sloths’ metabolisms are so slow, they don’t exhibit many external signs of stress and it can be hard to determine their mood.” ~ Ann Burton
- “This is only one step in a much larger project. I discovered (no, not me: my team) the function of sugar nucleotides in cell metabolism. I want others to understood this, but it is not easy to explain: this is not a very noteworthy deed, and we hardly know even a little.” ~ Luis Federico Leloir
- “The usual justification for eating extra meals is that it keeps the metabolism “revved up” so that weight loss is easier. There is, however, very little hard evidence that supports this idea, and a fair amount that disputes it.” ~ Andrew Weil
- “There are times when you cannot even control the sugar level in your body. Remember that when you put sugar in your metabolism, you are upsetting your metabolism in a very direct way. X amount of sugar is understandable, but the amount of sugar you put in, only God can save you. And whenever you put x amount of sugar, you must follow the law of depression. When you get that kind of depression, you lose a lot of friends. Therefore, it is very fair to channel your energy. One of the best ways to channel the energy is to do the pranayama.” ~ Harbhajan Singh Yogi
-
“Regardless of your metabolism, if you stop consuming so many calories, you will lose weight.” ~ Rob McElhenney
- “My main thesis will be that in the study of the intermediate processes of metabolism we have to deal not with complex substances which elude ordinary chemical methods, but with the simple substances undergoing comprehensible reactions… I intend also to emphasize the fact that it is not alone with the separation and identification of products from the animal that our present studies deal, but with their reactions in the body; with the dynamic side of biochemical phenomena.” ~ Frederick Gowland Hopkins
