George Wald, (lauréat du prix Nobel et professeur de biologie à l'université de Harvard) a écrit ceci dans un article intitulé "Life and Mind in the Universe" (Vie et esprit dans l'univers) paru dans la revue à comité de lecture International Journal of Quantum Chemistry : Quantum Biology, symposium 11 (1984) : 1-15.
“It has occurred to me lately—I must confess with some shock at first to my scientific sensibilities—that both questions [the origin of consciousness in humans and of life from non-living matter] might be brought into some degree of congruence. This is with the assumption that mind, rather than emerging as a late outgrowth in the evolution of life, has existed always as the matrix, the source and condition of physical reality—that stuff of which physical reality is composed is mind-stuff. It is mind that has composed a physical universe that breeds life and so eventually evolves creatures that know and create: science-, art-, and technology-making animals. In them the universe begins to know itself.”
