Bicycling is a big part of the future. It has to be. There's something wrong with a society that drives a car to work out in a gym.

Evolution is not something you can believe in or not believe in like do you believe in gravity.
Bill Nye
Image
Unlike science, creationism cannot predict anything, and it cannot provide satisfactory answers about the past.
Bill Nye
Image
The natural world is a package deal you don't get to select which facts you like and which you don't.
Bill Nye
Image
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
Image
Winter lingered so long in the lap of Spring that it occasioned a great deal of talk.
Bill Nye
Image
The US Navy has several people on every ship that can navigate by the stars. They don't fool with that.
Bill Nye

If the Earth gets hit by an asteroid, it's game over. It's control-alt-delete for civilization.

When we sit down to draw or paint the sun's rays, we generally use yellow because in the morning and the evening with the blue light scattered away so strongly you're left with a little bit of red and it comes out yellowish.

I've always loved airplanes and flight. The space program was really important to me as a kid. I still have a photo of Armstrong and Aldrin on the moon in my living room.

I say to the grownups, if you want to deny evolution and live in your world, that's completely inconsistent with the world we observe, that's fine. But don't make your kids do it. Because we need them. We need scientifically literate voters and taxpayers for the future. We need engineers that can build stuff and solve problems.

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.

One of the drawbacks of English is you can't spell things by hearing them.
Bill Nye
Image
Evolution is one of the most powerful and important ideas ever developed in the history of science. Every question it raises leads to new answers, new discoveries, and new smarter questions. The science of evolution is as expansive as nature itself. It is also the most meaningful creation story that humans have ever found.

The information you get from social media is not a substitute for academic discipline at all.
Bill Nye
Image
People and stars are made of the same stuff.
Bill Nye
Image
Promoting a religious agenda that is to apply to every citizen is inconsistent with our laws in the US. It seems to me that your community and mine can live and work together without conflict.
Bill Nye
Image
Teaching creationism in science class as an alternative to evolution is inappropriate.
Bill Nye
Image
Science is the key to our future, and if you don't believe in science, then you're holding everybody back.
Bill Nye
Image
Intuitively you want some place [such as your phone] to store phone numbers, so you have that part of your brain to do other tasks.

I'll admit that the discovery of evolution is humbling, but it is also empowering. It transforms our relationship to the life around us. Instead of being outsiders watching the natural world go by, we are insiders. We are part of the process we are the exquisite result of billions of years of natural research and development.
