More quotes by Neil deGrasse Tyson
Our nation is turning into an idiocracy.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
85 percent of the gravity of the universe has a point of origin about which we know nothing.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Don't know if it's good or bad that a Google search on “Big Bang Theory” lists the sitcom before the origin of the Universe
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Because we all just function, the rest of us, just go to work and come home artists make life bearable. They give perspectives on things we never knew you could have. They bring joy. They explore inner human emotion, and at its best, the full dynamic range of that emotion.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
What I’m saying is, when different experiments give you the same result, it is no longer subject to your opinion. That’s the good thing about science: It’s true whether or not you believe in it. That’s why it works.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Revelation replaced investigation.
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
I want people to see that the cosmic perspective is simultaneously honest about the universe we live in and uplifting, when we realize how far we have come and how wonderful is this world of ours.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Perhaps we’ve never been visited by aliens because they have looked upon earth and decided there’s no sign of intelligent life.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
No one wants to die, and no one wants to die poor. These are the two fundamental truths that transcend culture, they transcend politics, they transcend economic cycles.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I don't ever tell people what to do! Even if it seems and feels that way sometimes, I don't think I should tell a person how to spend their money. I try not to tell people what to read.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I lose sleep at night wondering whether we are intelligent enough to figure out the universe. I don't know.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
That the north star is the brightest in the night sky. I'd guess about 9 out of 10 people think this. But it does not require a grant from the National Science Foundation to learn the answer. The North Star is not even in the top 40 in the night sky. It's the 49th brightest star. Rather dull and boring by most measures.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
As areas of knowledge grow, so too do the perimeters of ignorance.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
While I'm a big fan of science fiction, especially as rendered in expensive Hollywood blockbusters, it's the real universe that calls to me. To fall into a black hole, that is more amazing than anything I've ever read in a science-fiction story.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I wonder if, in fact, we have been observed by aliens and upon close examination of human conduct and human behavior they have concluded that there is no sign of intelligent life on Earth.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
After 50 years of television, there's no other conclusion the aliens could draw, but that most humans are neurotic, death-hungry, dysfunctional idiots.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
It makes good sense to revere the sun and the stars ... because we are their children
Neil deGrasse Tyson
You don't discard Newton. Newton becomes the limiting case of how you would apply Einstein's theories.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
In the animal kingdom, one of the keys to survival is to outwit your enemies. And when you're surrounded by carnivores, one of the best strategies is to fade into the background and disappear.
