Nature has no bottom: its most basic principle is ‘organization’.
If nature puts two things together, she produces something new with new qualities, which cannot be expressed in terms of qualities of the components.
When going from electrons and protons to atoms, from here to molecules, molecular aggregates, etc., up to the cell or the whole animal, at every level we find something new, a new breathtaking vista.
Whenever we separate two things, we lose something, something which may have been the most essential feature.
Albert Szent-Györgyi
