 I believe that the extraordinary should be pursued. But extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

 I can find in my undergraduate classes, bright students who do not know that the stars rise and set at night, or even that the Sun is a star.

 I don’t feel rejected by the sky. I’m a part of it- tiny, to be sure, but everything is tiny compared to that overwhelming immensity.

 If you want to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe.

 In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken', and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen

 Our species needs, and deserves, a citizenry with minds wide awake and a basic understanding of how the world works.

 Personally, I would be delighted if there were a life after death, especially if it permitted me to continue to learn about this world and others, if it gave me a chance to discover how history turns out.

 That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every 'superstar,' every 'supreme leader,' every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there - on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

 The brain is like a muscle. When it is in use we feel very good. Understanding is joyous.

 The cosmos is all that is, or ever was, or ever will be.

 The surface of the Earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. From it we have learned most of what we know. Recently, we have waded a little out to sea, enough to dampen our toes or, at most, wet our ankles. The water seems inviting. The ocean calls. So

 The Universe forces those who live in it to understand it. Those creatures who find everyday experience a muddled jumble of events with no predictability, no regularity, are in grave peril. The Universe belongs to those who, at least to some degree,

 The universe is not required to be in perfect harmony with human ambition.

 The universe seems neither benign nor hostile, merely indifferent.

 The well-meaning contention that all ideas have equal merit seems to me little different from the disastrous contention that no ideas have any merit.
