America has had many other discoverers besides Columbus, but he seems to have made more satisfactory arrangements with the historians than any of the others.

More quotes by Bill Nye
The theory of evolution was not formally published until shortly before Faraday's death. Evolution was yet to be discovered during Faraday's life. Also, I don't think that Michael Faraday would claim that the Earth is extraordinarily young.
Bill Nye
I don't perceive an anti-religious agenda, especially with regard to Christians and Christianity.
Bill Nye
If you memorize the periodic table it will speed you up if you're a chemist, but by and large, the reason you have a periodic table is so that you can store that information outside of your body. That way it frees up some part of your brain to do something else...
Bill Nye
If we raise a generation of students who dont believe in the process of science, who think everything that weve come to know about nature and the universe can be dismissed by a few sentences translated into English from some ancient text, youre not going to continue to innovate.
Bill Nye
Evolution is not something you can believe in or not believe in like do you believe in gravity.
Bill Nye
A two-and-a-half-year-old is pretty experienced at making a mess, anyway.
Bill Nye
Hard to find anything lovelier than a tree. They grow at right angles to a tangent of the nominal sphere of the Earth.
Bill Nye
Anybody who grew up with the space program is a fan of science fiction.
Bill Nye
The strange thing about grinding that might surprise many people is that you can grind things and shape them using materials that are generally somewhat softer than the thing you're grinding and shaping.
Bill Nye
When or if answers are found, you can be assured those answers will lead to more questions. Is the troubling or wonderful? It depends on your view of your place in nature, your place among the stars I suppose.
Bill Nye
The debate [in Undeniable] was nominally about creationism as a viable explanation for what we observe around us. For my side, the debate went very well I'm not sure what I would change, although I can imagine shortening my answers during the rebuttals, perhaps.
Bill Nye
The world's going to change climatically. We just want to control the change. We want to have a high quality of life for billions of people as we pass through this era.
Bill Nye
To leave the world better than you found it, sometimes you have to pick up other people's trash.
Bill Nye
I speak with dogs frequently. They don't really talk, but I feel they're communicating.
Bill Nye
The more you find out about the world, the more opportunities there are to laugh at it.
Bill Nye
The future of commerce is going to be all electronic. The gold standard was a fine idea, but electronic changes of funds and credits will be the future.
Bill Nye
The meaning of life is pretty clear: Living things strive to pass their genes into the future. The claim that we would not have morals or ethics without religion is extraordinary. Animals in nature seem to behave in moral ways without organized religion.
Bill Nye
The natural world is a package deal you don't get to select which facts you like and which you don't.
Bill Nye
People and stars are made of the same stuff.
Bill Nye
I hope climate science becomes the big thing. And then what I want is electrical engineers to solve the world's energy problems, energy distribution problems. I want mechanical engineers to make better transportation systems. I want chemical engineers to develop better solar panels, and so on.
