Comparing science and religion isn't like comparing apples and oranges - it's more like apples and sewing machines.

When I was growing up in Montana I had two dreams: I wanted to be a paleontologist and I wanted to have a pet dinosaur and so that's what I've been striving for all of my life.

Almost all of my graduate students say that they got interested in dinosaurs because of 'Jurassic Park.'

The chicken is a dinosaur. I mean, it really is. You can't argue with it, because we're the classifiers and we've classified it that way.

Children have a great urge to learn about dinosaurs.

A dinosaur out of context is like a character without a story. Worse than that, the character suffers from amnesia.

I'm trying to figure out the biology of dinosaurs and what they were like as living creatures.
