Richard P. Feynman
Image
Music is part of being human.
Oliver Sacks

Michio Kaku

Bill Bryson
Image
Accommodation to change, the thoughtful pursuit of alternative futures are keys to the survival of civilization and perhaps of the human species.
Carl Sagan

A single message from space will show that it is possible to live through technological adolescence. . . . It is possible that the future of human civilization depends on the receipt of interstellar messages.
Carl Sagan
Image
