Neil deGrasse Tyson
If there's a Devil, that mean's there's a God.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
One of the reasons we're here, that we exist at all, is that Earth, cosmically speaking, is in a relatively peaceful place: orbiting our Sun in a near perfect circle.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Physics is the only profession in which prophecy is not only accurate but routine.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
