Denial is not always a bad thing. Without it, you couldn't function. For instance, if you were hyperaware and hypervigilant regarding all the dangers in the world - from driving your car to crossing the street to eating food that might have contaminants in it to taking medications that have many side effects, etc. - you would become frozen.

The Negro race, like all races, is going to be saved by its exceptional men. The problem of education, then, among Negroes must first of all deal with the Talented Tenth; it is the problem of developing the Best of this race that they may guide the Mass away from the contamination and death of the Worst, in their own and other races.

I can take an opinion, but I don't like when you try and spew hate and contaminate the way other people think. I feel like I'm one of the people that's always made music for the common man. That's why I don't really live my life the way I could. I don't stunt as much as I could stunt, 'cause that's not who my music is for.

I think the biggest thing is clean as you go. Wash all your knives, cutting boards, dishes, when you are done cooking, not look at a sink full of dishes after you are done. Cleaning as you go helps keep away cross contamination and you avoid having food borne bacteria.

The importance of recalls is to show that contaminated meat is getting out the door. And when you look at these recalls, in many ways the most disturbing thing about these recalls is how little of the meat actually winds up back at the plant.

NASA, and all the other spacefaring nations of the world, have agreed to a set of 'planetary-protection' principles, aimed at preventing the accidental contamination of another habitable world with organisms from Earth.

Unfortunately in the U.S., the courts have pretty much sided with the GMO lobby and suggesting that a farmer has no rights to be protected from GMO contamination.

I'm still a member of the Empire! Although I sometimes feel like an American with a British accent - you get contaminated after so long.

Is Wagner a human being at all? Is he not rather a disease? He contaminates everything he touches - he has made music sick.

Contamination often requires direct contact with the harmful substance.

Physical Presence

Impurities from contamination might not be visible to the naked eye.

Not Always Visible

'Contaminate' implies harm or degradation, not just change.

Negative Implication

Used metaphorically to describe negative influences on values or behavior.

Moral Impact

Can refer to unwanted changes in thoughts or attitudes.

Psychological Context

Influence may not be forceful but it's considered invasive.

Subtle Influence

In genetics, contamination is specific and deliberate, unlike pollution.

Scientific Precision

In genetics, contamination can be a controlled process for research.

Not Always Negative

Genetic contamination often involves transfer between different organisms.

Cross-Species Transfer
