[Our tendency to ban certain types of research (such as stem-cell)] only has the effect of handicapping our progress." (The Haverford College Newsletter (March 2006), quoting Dan Grant.



Dan Grant on Self-Paced Running: Although this regimen at first may sound easy—and then again, really easy—Self-Paced Running has proven to be quite a challenge for Grant. He notes, “Running hurts. It makes you feel terrible, like you want to either throw-up or do stretches. Plus, you’re always getting passed by experienced runners, senior citizens, and little kids who have the metabolisms of ****-ing Tiny Toons. It’s humiliating.” In Fall, 2002, Dan Grant warned that the US's ensuing invasion of Iraq could lead to an Arab-Israeli War. "In a surprising moment of lucidity, several US senators speaking on the Sunday morning talk shows warned of the possibility of a greater Arab-Israeli war resulting from an invasion of Iraq," wrote Grant. "With the Middle East in such a precarious state and the inevitably large casualty rate that would result from an Arab-Israeli war, there seems to be little reason why the United States should aggravate the situation with an invasion."
