"What can be said with some assurance is that there is a unique and 
nearly ubiquitous compound, with the empirical formula 
H(2960)O(1480)C(1480)N(16)P(1.8)S, called living matter.  Its 
synthesis, on an oxidized and uncarboxylated earth, is the most 
intricate feat of chemical engineering ever performed - and the most 
delicate operation that people have ever tampered with."

Edward S. Deevey, Jr.  Mineral Cycles,
Scientific American, September 1970.

"The biosphere -- this thin film of air and water and soil and life 
no deeper than ten miles, or one four-hundredth of the earth's radius 
-- is now the setting of the uncertain history of man."

"Man must learn to see himself in his true place and proportion in 
the biosphere."

The Editors, Scientific American. Foreword to The Biosphere, the book 
version of Scientific American's September 1970 special issue on The 
Biosphere.
