More quotes by Neil deGrasse Tyson
When we try to look farther into the universe we come to what appears to be the end of space but actually it's the beginning of time.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
There's the anti-intellectual movement in society and I don't blame them entirely for feeling that way because we all know people, I have many colleagues where you try to hang out with them and they make you feel bad for not knowing what they know. If that's how you interact with people, why would anyone want to be that.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
With automatic spell checkers running unleashed over what we compose, our era is that of correctly spelled typos.

On some issues, I'm a staunch Conservative — like curtailing greenhouse gas emissions so that we can Conserve the environment.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
We are not figuratively, but literally stardust.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
We are star dust in the highest exalted way, called by the universe, reaching out to the universe

But to measure cause and effect... you must ensure that a simple correlation, however tempting it may be, is not mistaken for a cause. In the 1990s the stork population of Germany increased and the German at-home birth rate rose as well. Shall we credit storks for airlifting the babies?

The tenacity of life is mind-boggling. We keep finding it where no one thought it could be.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
When I would lose matches, I fully respected the person who beat me, because they beat me. I can't blame anybody.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Publicly and among themselves biologists rightly celebrate the diversity of life on Earth... At the end of the day, however, their confession is heard by no one: they work with a single scientific sample-life on Earth.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
If an alien lands on your front lawn and extends an appendage as a gesture of greeting, before you get friendly, toss it an eightball. If the appendage explodes, then the alien was probably made of antimatter. If not, then you can proceed to take it to your leader.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
To be scientifically literate is to empower yourself to know when someone else is full of bullshit.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
To learn more about science, turn off your electronic device and go outside and look around a bit. Nature is calling you. Go on. The internet will still be here.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The Universe is under no obligation to make sense to you.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
It's better to understand something than to memorize something.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I've known from long ago that the universe was calling me. If you were one of those annoying adults that said, 'Oh, what are you gonna be when you grow up?' I would say, 'Astrophysicist .' And then they'd walk away real quickly.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Photons are accurately and legitimately described as waves and particles at the same time. They are genuine wavicles.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I'm not writing for myself. I'm writing as an educator, I'm writing to stimulate others.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
My popularity does not derive from me pandering to people. People came to me. I don't tell anyone to follow me on Twitter. I don't tell people to like my Facebook page. I don't tell people to fill the venue. I'm offered to people, and then people come.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Speaking as just simply an American who cares about the economic health of our country, I see one of the surest ways to bring wealth and prosperity to the country is to innovate in science and technology.
