" "Или: „Децата, които гледат насилие по телевизията, са по-склонни към насилие, когато пораснат.“ Но дали телевизията причинява насилието, или децата със склонност към насилие просто обичат да гледат подобни програми? Много е вероятно и двете твърдения да са верни. Комерсиалните защитници на телевизионното насилие твърдят, че всеки може да направи разлика между телевизия и действителност. Но понастоящем детските програми в събота сутрин излъчват средно по 25 акта на насилие на час. Това най-малкото прави децата по-малко чувствителни към агресията и проявите на безсмислена жестокост. И ако на податливите на внушение възрастни могат да бъдат имплантирани фалшиви спомени, какво имплантираме в децата си, при положение че ги излагаме на около 100 000 акта на насилие още преди да са завършили началното училище?
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.

Many of the problems facing us may be soluble, but only if we are willing to embrace brilliant, daring and complex solutions. Such solutions require brilliant, daring and complex people. I believe that there are many more of them around — in every nation, ethnic group and degree of affluence — than we realize.
I find many adults are put off when young children pose scientific questions. Why is the Moon round? the children ask. Why is grass green? What is a dream? How deep can you dig a hole? When is the world’s birthday? Why do we have toes? Too many teachers and parents answer with irritation or ridicule, or quickly move on to something else: ‘What did you expect the Moon to be, square?’ Children soon recognize that somehow this kind of question annoys the grown-ups. A few more experiences like it, and another child has been lost to science. Why adults should pretend to omniscience before 6-year-olds, I can’t for the life of me understand. What’s wrong with admitting that we don’t know something? Is our self-esteem so fragile?
