Iconic phrases

"The cosmos is all that is, all that was and all that will be. Our slightest contemplation of the cosmos makes us shudder: we feel a tickling in our nerves, a silent voice, a slight sensation as of a distant memory or " As if we were falling from a great height. "We know that we are approaching the greatest of mysteries."

"The Earth is a more beautiful place in our eyes than any other we know. But that knowledge only makes sense because of that little pale blue dot. It is our home. It is all we have ever known."

"Our planet is a solitary point in the great dark cosmic envelope. In our darkness, in all this vastness, there is no sign of help coming from anywhere else to save us from ourselves."

"The human brain is capable of a continuous change of expectations, perceptions and attitudes. To transform is to live."

"To explore the universe is to explore ourselves."
