More quotes by Carl Sagan
If the greenhouse effect is a blanket in which we wrap ourselves to keep warm, nuclear winter kicks the blanket off.
Carl Sagan
If the press descended, the science would surely suffer.
Carl Sagan
The method of science is tried and true. It is not perfect, it's just the best we have. And to abandon it, with its skeptical protocols, is the pathway to a dark age.
Carl Sagan
We are star stuff which has taken its destiny into its own hands.
Carl Sagan
There is never only ONE of anything in nature.
Carl Sagan
Looking at fires when high, by the way, especially through one of those prism kaleidoscopes which image their surroundings, is an extraordinarily moving and beautiful experience.
Carl Sagan
Books permit us to voyage through time, to tap the wisdom of our ancestors.
Carl Sagan
What began in deadly competition has helped us to see that global cooperation is the essential precondition for our survival. Travel is broadening. It's time to hit the road again.
Carl Sagan
What's the harm of a little mystification? It sure beats boring statistical analyses.
Carl Sagan
The Bill of Rights decoupled religion from the state, in part because so many religions were steeped in an absolutist frame of mind - each convinced that it alone had a monopoly on the truth and therefore eager for the state to impose this truth on others.
Carl Sagan
When you make the finding yourself - even if you're the last person on Earth to see the light - you'll never forget it.
Carl Sagan
Science is only a Latin word for knowledge
Carl Sagan
The Platonists and their Christian successors held the peculiar notion that the Earth was tainted and somehow nasty, while the heavens were perfect and divine. The fundamental idea that the Earth is a planet, that we are citizens of the Universe, was rejected and forgotten.
Carl Sagan
We humans look rather different from a tree. Without a doubt we perceive the world differently than a tree does. But down deep, at the molecular heart of life, the trees and we are essentially identical.
Carl Sagan
Perhaps the depth of love can be calibrated by the number of different selves that are actively involved in a given relationship.
Carl Sagan
We are made of star-stuff. Our bodies are made of star-stuff. There are pieces of star within us all.
Carl Sagan
An atheist is someone who is certain that God does not exist, someone who has compelling evidence against the existence of God. I know of no such compelling evidence.
Carl Sagan
There is in this Universe much of what seems to be design.
Carl Sagan
The understanding of the intent of the artist which I can achieve when high sometimes carries over to when I’m down. This is one of many human frontiers which cannabis has helped me traverse.
Carl Sagan
One of the great commandments of science is: 'Mistrust arguments from authority.'
Carl Sagan
