Image
I have to live in the richest, deepest, most productive way I can
Oliver Sacks
Image
If I say [electrons] behave like particles I give the wrong impression also if I say they behave like waves. They behave in their own inimitable way, which technically could be called a quantum mechanical way. They behave in a way that is like nothing that you have seen before.
Richard P. Feynman
Image
A force field is basically an invisible shield. You push a button and all of a sudden a bubble forms around you which is impenetrable. It can stop bullets, it can stop ray gun blasts and we realized force fields are actually a little bit difficult to create.
Michio Kaku
Image
The open road still softly calls, like a nearly forgotten song of childhood
Carl Sagan
Image
If you drive to, say, Shenandoah National Park, or the Great Smoky Mountains, you'll get some appreciation for the scale and beauty of the outdoors. When you walk into it, then you see it in a completely different way. You discover it in a much slower, more majestic sort of way.
Bill Bryson
Image
I like the fact that people are surprised by my age. I like the fact that I get carded.
Cara Santa Maria
Image
Faith is the lack of evidence, and it shouldn't be that difficult to convince people that the right reason to believe something is that there is evidence for it. People do not innately go for this view, but nevertheless it is not that difficult to teach.
Richard Dawkins
Image
To be scientifically literate is to empower yourself to know when someone else is full of bullshit.
Neil deGrasse Tyson

I'm going to play with physics, whenever I want to, without worrying about any importance whatsoever.
Richard P. Feynman
Image
We're in 'Jurassic Park' territory. If we go to the zoo in the future, we'll have zoos for extinct animals.
Michio Kaku
Image
The universe is a strange and wondrous place. The truth is quite odd enough to need no help from pseudoscientific charlatans.
Richard Dawkins
Image
Every instrument that has been designed to be sensitive enough to detect weak light has always ended up discovering that the same thing: light is made of particles.
Richard P. Feynman
Image
We are...capable of using our compassion and our intelligence, our technology and our wealth, to make an abundant and meaningful life for every inhabitant of this planet. To enhance enormously our understanding of the Universe, and to carry us to the stars.
Carl Sagan
Image
You should chose your heroes a-la carte. Picking and choosing from one and then another, thereby assembling a kind of composite hero. That way when you discover something reprehensible about any one of them it matters nothing to you because that's not the part of them that piqued your interest.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Image
Extraordinary observations require extraordinary evidence to make them believable.
Carl Sagan
Image
It's hard to kill a creature once it lets you see its consciousness.
Carl Sagan
Image
Your religion assumes that people are children and need a boogeyman so they'll behave. You want people to believe in God so they'll obey the law. That's the only means that occurs to you: a strict secular police force, and the threat of punishment by an all-seeing God for whatever the police overlook. You sell human beings short.
Carl Sagan
Image
If we do not speak for Earth, who will? If we are not committed to our own survival, who will be?
Carl Sagan
Image
We are a very, very unusual species.
Richard Dawkins
Image
We live in an in-between universe where things change all right...but according to patterns, rules, or as we call them, laws of nature.
Carl Sagan
Image
We should take astrology seriously. No, I don't mean we should believe in it. I am talking about fighting it seriously instead of humouring it as a piece of harmless fun.
Richard Dawkins
Image
I think that [Jay] Gould's separate compartments was a purely political ploy to win middle-of-the-road religious people to the science camp. But it's a very empty idea. There are plenty of places where religion does not keep off the scientific turf.
Richard Dawkins
Image
The chicken is only an egg’s way for making another egg.
Richard Dawkins
Image
In the countryside, litter doesn't have a friend. It doesn't have anybody who's saying, 'Wait a minute, this is really starting to get out of control.'
Bill Bryson
