I’ve always admired Gene Hackman, Jack Lemmon, Jimmy Stewart, Gregory Peck. I’m showing my age here.
Natural selection is not gene centrist and nor is biology all about genes; our comprehending minds are a result of our fast evolving culture.
We were married in the south of France because Gene loved France. If he could have been born French, he would have been – that was his dream.
When I look at old pictures, I see my son Luciano, not me. Luciano looks identical. That’s what’s extraordinary, the power of a gene pool.
I think I am missing a gene that most people have to enable them to feel happiness about success and these kind of things.
My family are all storytellers, and I think I inherited a lot more of that gene than other people in my family. I guess I was fun to have around.
I wrote three mysteries and then a contemporary spy novel that was unbelievably derivative – completely based on ‘The Conversation,’ the movie with Gene Hackman. Amazingly, the character in the book looks exactly like… Gene Hackman.
When I was writing ‘House Of Suns,’ there were a few writers I had in mind as role models, the main being Gene Wolfe.
I have the Cuban gene of speaking very loudly.
Gene Hackman is one of the great American actors of all time.
If there is one thing that all players have in common it is that winning, competitive gene; the ability to overcome obstacles and fight for what you want from your career.
Gene therapies and other treatments that can cure – not just treat – disease are going to be expensive. All of the cost of innovating and reaping an economic return may need to be recouped in a single payment.
You put funny people in funny costumes and paint them green and we could talk about anything we wanted to, because that was the only thing that fascinated Gene about this particular genre.
Gene Roddenberry is one of the greatest guys who ever lived because he gave us hope that the future might be bright and we could accept one another for whoever we were, even if we were alien. That’s an amazing message, don’t you think?
We are sometimes asked what the result would be if we put four +’s in one gene. To answer this my colleagues have recently put together not merely four but six +’s.
I like the fact that this kind of family has been seen in a movie a million times: teenage kids, the family is a bit strained and they don’t have enough money, but in the background the guy used to be a Gene Simmons type.
This new movie, ‘Full Moon in Blue Water,’ I loved the idea of working with Gene Hackman, who is a great actor, but when I read the script, I threw it right into the trash can, because I didn’t like this woman. She was just a doormat.
I got to work with Gene Hackman for six weeks, side by side, 12 hours a day.
I felt very lucky that I not only got to be on Piper’s Pit and work with Rowdy Roddy Piper who I feel is one of the best promo guys in the history of the company, but I also got to get interviewed by Mean Gene Okerlund who is another favorite from my childhood. I was a huge fan.
That the primary effect of gene mutation may be as simple as the substitution of a single amino acid by another and may lead to profound secondary changes in protein structure and properties has recently been strongly indicated by the work of Ingram on hemoglobin.
At the core of ‘Star Trek’ is Gene Roddenberry’s vision of the future. So much of science-fiction is about a dystopian society with human civilization having crumbled. He had an affirmative, shining, positive view of the future.
I’m really influenced by Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly.
I think we’ve debunked the myth of talent. It doesn’t appear that there’s anything like a music gene or center in the brain that Stevie Wonder has that nobody else has.
I am an Ashkenazi Jew, and there are a whole host of genetic disorders that only Ashkenazi Jews have. I don’t know if you know this, but 16 or 17 disorders that we carry the gene for.
Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Donald O’Connor – those were my idols. All I ever wanted to be was a motion picture song-and-dance man. I kind of fell into other things. Did walk-ons and bits for years and worked in little theater at night.
My favorite film is Gene Tierney and Tyrone Power in The Razor’s Edge.
I’ve got the ‘fat gene’ in my family, so I’ve always got to watch what I eat.
I spent 10 years trying to find one gene.
‘Mean Gene,’ as he was universally known, made every WWE Superstar he interacted with appear larger than life. He had the gift of gab as one of WWE’s most tenured personalities.
When I look back on my own experiences with Mean Gene, I always remember such a kind man willing to offer insight with his vast knowledge on the industry.
Gene Autry was the most. It may sound like a joke – Go and have a look in my bedroom, It’s covered with Gene Autry posters. He was my first musical influence.
I remember the day we found the gene for the inter-species signaling molecule like it was yesterday. We got the gene, and we plugged it into a database. And we immediately saw that this gene was in an amazing number of species of bacteria. It was a huge moment of realization.
When I think of character actors, I think of Spencer Tracy; I think of Gene Hackman, Robert Duvall. When I was a young lad watching films, my eyes were on them – watching ‘On the Waterfront,’ my eyes are on Rod Steiger and Karl Malden, not on Brando.
Gene Kelly has meant so much to me through the years. I used to dance in my living room in socks and a tee-shirt, no idea what I was doing, but wanting to dance like Gene.
I think I have a gene in me to always fight for the underdog, which I’ve done since I was a kid.
We have a battery of tests planned at regular intervals including DNA methylation analysis, gene expression profile changes, telomere length (both TAT and QTRAP measured) and various other metrics that will highlight positive changes to aging biomarkers.
I have a huge acting crush on Gene Hackman. I just love watching him.
I always wanted to be Gene Hackman and I always wanted to be, you know… I wanted to be one of these guys. I always wanted to be Bob Duvall.
For some people, it’s best for their mental health to know they have the gene for Huntington’s and some time in the future they’ll have a problem. But to other people, it would be a disaster.
Though social eugenics was discredited long ago, we still often think of the genome in quasi-eugenic terms. When we read about the latest discovery of a link between a gene and a disease, we imagine that we’ve learned the cause of the disease, and we may even think we’ll get a cure by fixing the gene.
My mother was a lupus patient. I was a child with the lupus gene.
