It depends on which copy of the book you're looking at, but that quote is on page 168 in many printings.
In the future, there are three useful resources for finding specific quotes within a book.
1) Google Books: If you go to books.google.com, you can then search a specific book title. Once you've found the book you're looking for, you can use the search boxes on the page to look for specific quotations or passages. Depending on the book, there may be limitations on how much of a book you're able to preview for free. Unfortunately, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is not a book that you can "look inside" of on Google Books, but it's a useful tool for the future.
2) Amazon: Similar to Google Books, you can search a particular book title and, if it shows you a "Look inside!" option, you can view pages within the book and even search specific words/phrases. Again, there may be limitations on which pages you can see or how much you can preview.
3) Project Gutenberg: If you visit gutenberg.org, you'll find thousands of free full-text eBooks at your fingertips. You can search within the books and even get the book in PDF format, Kindle format, etc. This is a great place to look for any books (including textbooks in some cases) for future reading.
