Planets were very large places, on any scale but that of the spaces in between them.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
Planets are the big bullies of the planetary system that are, that basically ignore everybody else around them. And everybody else has to deal with the planets. Those are what the planets are.
Mike Brown
Image
Planets are too dim to be detected with existing equipment, far away, except in these very special circumstances where they're seen by their gravitational effect
Murray Gell-Mann
Image
Planets move in ellipses with the Sun at one focus.
Johannes Kepler
Image
If we do discover more than one type of life on Earth, we can be fairly certain that the universe is teeming with it, for it would be inconceivable that life started twice here but never on all the other earth-like planets.
Paul Davies
Image
Renunciation is the central sun, round which devotion, knowledge and the rest revolve like planets.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
We're living in the anthropocene age and now human beings will be the shapers of our future, that totally control the overall functions of not just our planet, but our relationship with other planets.
Vandana Shiva
Image
If we're thinking about old civilizations, those that formed a long time ago and there were stars and planets around long before Earth even existed, then these are going to be towards the center of the galaxy. That is the place to look if you think there are ancient civilizations that have made beacons or some other way of attracting our attention.
Paul Davies
Image
Science fiction, to me, has not only things that wouldn't happen, but other planets.
Margaret Atwood
Image
Could it be that the planets are castaway heads.
Visar Zhiti
Image
NASA scientists announced the discovery of 50 new planets, among them what they're calling Super Earth. It's indistinguishable from regular earth until it removes its glasses.
Peter Sagal
Image
I think the Earth and everything around it is connected - the sky and the planets and the stars and everything else we see as a mystery.
Marion Cotillard
Image
If there’s life on other planets, then the earth is the Universe’s insane asylum.
Voltaire
Image
Understanding the history of matter and searching for its most interesting forms, such as galaxies, stars, planets and life, seems a suitable use for our intelligence.
Robert Kirshner
Image
Upon him the contempt of three planets descended.
Philip K. Dick
Image
Human relations just are not fixed in their orbits like the planets -- they're more like galaxies, changing all the time, exploding into light for years, then dying away.
May Sarton
Image
Earth is an insane asylum, to which the other planets deport their lunatics.
Voltaire
Image
I think anybody would have to be with out common sense to think there weren't aliens. There are billions of planets, and I am convinced Earth is not the only one that's inhabited. It would be quite an ego trip to think that. I think about it all the time.
Sabrina Lloyd
Image
I simply haven't the nerve to imagine a being, a force, a cause which keeps the planets revolving in their orbits and then suddenly stops in order to give me a bicycle with three speeds.
Quentin Crisp
Image
God is a snooker player, that's why all the planets are turning!
Mehmet Murat Ildan
Image
Most complaints, you know, aren't won or lost on their own merits, but rather on larger issues--politics and the position of the planets.
Walter Wykes
Image
Princess, you could never be that. You are unique to me. (Zarek) Am I your rose? (Astrid) Yes, you are my rose. There is only one of you in all the millions of planets and stars. (Zarek)
Sherrilyn Kenyon
Image
Astronomy is a cold, desert science, with all its pompous figures,-depends a little too much on the glass-grinder, too little on the mind. 'T is of no use to show us more planets and systems. We know already what matter is, and more or less of it does not signify.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
I see planets that don't exist and landscapes that have only been dreamed.
Werner Herzog
