My wonder button is being pushed all the time.

We are made of starstuff.

The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it, but the way those atoms are put together.

In the fabric of space and in the nature of matter, as in a great work of art, there is, written small, the artist's signature.

The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses.

How lucky we are to live in this time / the first moment in human history / when we are in fact visiting other worlds

We are...capable of using our compassion and our intelligence, our technology and our wealth, to make an abundant and meaningful life for every inhabitant of this planet. To enhance enormously our understanding of the Universe, and to carry us to the stars.
