A quotation by Carl Sagan I came across a few days ago: “We make our world significant by the courage of our questions and by the depth of our answers.”
“The popularization of science that Isaac Asimov did so well — the communication not just of the findings but of the methods of science — seems to me as natural as breathing. After all, when you’re in love, you want to tell the world.”
“…our preferences do not determine what’s true. We have a method, and that method helps us to reach not absolute truth, only asymptotic approaches to the truth — never there, just closer and closer, always finding vast new oceans of undiscovered possibilities.”
— from “Wonder and Skepticism,” Skeptical Inquirer, Vol. 19, Issue 1, 1995
