«يعيش القرن الثالث عشر جنبًا إلى جنب مع القرن العشرين ليس فقط في بيوت الفلاحين وإنما — أيضًا — في ناطحات السحاب الكائنة في المدن. فمائة مليون شخص يستخدمون الكهرباء وما زالوا يعتقدون في القوى السحرية للإشارات والتعاويذ ... وكما يذهب نجوم السينما إلى الوسطاء الروحانيين، كذلك فإن الطيارين الذين يقودون آلات معجزة أوجدتها عبقرية الإنسان يضعون التمائم في ستراتهم، فيا لَهَوْل ما لديهم من مخزون لا ينفذ من الظلام والجهل والهمجية!»

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

The emerging picture of the early Solar System does not resemble a stately progression of events designed to form the Earth. Instead, it looks as if our planet was made, and survived, by mere lucky chance,* amid unbelievable violence. Our world does not seem to have been sculpted by a master craftsman. Here too, there is no hint of a Universe made for us.
