Neil deGrasse Tyson
We are in the universe and the universe is in us.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
But my vote for Venus's most peculiar feature is the presence of craters that are all relatively young and uniformly distributed over its surface. This innocuous-sounding feature implicates a single planetwide catastrophe that reset the cratering clock... turning Venus's entire surface into the American automotive dream-a totally paved planet.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
America has an economy reversing relative to other nations in the world. And I want to turn that around. And one way I know to turn it around is to get everyone excited about what it is to innovate again.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The most successful people recognize that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
If there's some kind of rock star status, would I be irresponsible if I didn't somehow use it for a continued greater good? I'm always involved in some way with reaching the public.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I don't like trying to influence politicians, who are themselves representative of huge numbers of people. As an educator, I'd rather enlighten the people and educate the people and let they be the ones who put the pressure on their elected officials.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Our five senses are faulty data-taking devices, and they need help.
