I was recently in a conference about synthetic biological approaches to deal with cancer. The only quote I wrote down was "this approach kills cancer in a petri dish, but so does a shotgun"
All that time thinking it was a funny inside joke in the biological community and someone ripped it off an xkcd. Of course they did. That's hilarious.
