More quotes by Bill Nye
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.
Bill Nye
If you have this idea that the earth is only 6,000 years old, you are denying, if you will, everything that you can touch and see. Youre not paying attention to whats happening in the universe around you.
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
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
Unlike science, creationism cannot predict anything, and it cannot provide satisfactory answers about the past.
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
The more you find out about the world, the more opportunities there are to laugh at it.
Bill Nye
I meet so many people who are intimidated by arithmetic.
Bill Nye
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.
Bill Nye
Not wasting any water bottles is good. Not leaving the lights on is good. Turning the thermostat down in the winter, up in the summer, is good. But the best thing any of us in the developed world, especially in the United States, can be doing is talking about it.
Bill Nye
If you want grown-ups to recycle, just tell their kids the importance of recycling, and they'll be all over it.
Bill Nye
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.
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
Talk about science with everyone you meet. Especially talk about climate change. It needs to become a part of our everyday conversation (the way it is everywhere else in the world).
Bill Nye
Everyone, red state, blue state, everyone supports space exploration.
Bill Nye
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.
Bill Nye
I try to speak plainly and be sympathetic to the idea of religions where people gather in community. They get a sense of people looking out for each other. My claim is that we have a tendency to look out for each other whether or not there is a religion involved.
Bill Nye
If you look back on all the teachers that you liked, I am sure you will find they were very entertaining.
Bill Nye
Science is the best idea humans have ever had. The more people who embrace that idea, the better.
Bill Nye
People and stars are made of the same stuff.
