"Life is but a momentary glimpse of the wonder of this astonishing universe, and it is sad to see so many dreaming it away on spiritual fantasy."
Carl Sagan - American astronomer and science popularizer. “My candidate for planetary ambassador…a beacon of clear light in a dark world of alien abductions and ‘real-life X-files,’ of psychic charlatans and New Age airheads, of fatcat astrologers giggling all the way to the millennium.” - Richard Dawkins. “Carl never wanted to believe. He wanted to know.” - Sagan’s wife, Ann Druyan. (via helvetebrann)
