— Аз търся, Елеанор. След всичките тези години, вярвай ми, познавам истината, когато я видя. Всяка вяра, която изпитва възхита пред истината, която се стреми да опознае Бог, трябва да е достатъчно смела, за да приеме вселената. Искам да кажа, истинската вселена. Всичките тези светлинни години. Всички тези светове. Мисля си за мащабите на твоята вселена, за възможностите, които тя предлага на Създателя, и дъхът ми секва. Така е много по-добре, отколкото да го приковеш към един малък свят. Никога не ми е допадала представата за Земята като за зелена възглавничка за краката на Бога. Тя е прекалено успокоителна, като детска приказка, като… транквилизатор. Но твоята вселена има достатъчно място и достатъчно време за Бог, какъвто аз си го представям.

About Carl Sagan

Carl Edward Sagan (9 November 1934 – 20 December 1996) was an American astronomer, planetary scientist, cosmologist, astrophysicist, astrobiologist, author, and science communicator. His best known scientific contribution is research on extraterrestrial life, including experimental demonstration of the production of amino acids from basic chemicals by radiation. Sagan assembled the first physical messages sent into space, the Pioneer plaque and the Voyager Golden Record, universal messages that could potentially be understood by any extraterrestrial intelligence that might find them. Sagan argued the hypothesis, accepted since, that the high surface temperatures of Venus can be attributed to, and calculated using, the greenhouse effect. He testified to the US Congress in 1985 that the greenhouse effect will change the earth's climate system.

Additional quotes by Carl Sagan

or warning it of complicity with Nazi Germany — two matters of considerable moral as well as historical import, on which Pope John Paul II, to his credit, has admitted that the Church has erred.

Exploration is in our nature. We began as wanderers, and we are wanderers still. We have lingered long enough on the shores of the cosmic ocean. We are ready at last to set sail for the stars.

The greatest part of human existence was spent in such a time. Over the dying embers of the campfire, on a moonless night, we watched the stars.
