Neil deGrasse Tyson
“The cosmic perspective shows Earth to be a mote. But it’s a precious mote and, for the moment, it’s the only home we have.”
Neil deGrasse Tyson, Astrophysics for People in a Hurry

Neil deGrasse Tyson
“At least once a week, if not once a day, we might each ponder what cosmic truths lie undiscovered before us, perhaps awaiting the arrival of a clever thinker, an ingenious experiment, or an innovative space mission to reveal them. We might further ponder how those discoveries may one day transform life on Earth.
Absent such curiosity, we are no different from the provincial farmer who expresses no need to venture beyond the county line, because his forty acres meet all his needs. Yet if all our predecessors had felt that way, the farmer would instead be a cave dweller, chasing down his dinner with a stick and a rock.”
Neil deGrasse Tyson, Astrophysics for People in a Hurry

Erich Fromm
“You do many things at once; you read, listen to the radio, talk, smoke, eat, drink. You are the consumer with the open mouth, eager and ready to swallow everything—pictures, liquor, knowledge. This lack of concentration is clearly shown in our difficulty in being alone with ourselves. To sit still, without talking, smoking, reading, drinking, is impossible for most people. They become nervous and fidgety, and must do something with their mouth or their hands.”
Erich Fromm, The Art of Loving

Erich Fromm
“People think that to love is simple, but that to find the right object to love—or to be loved by—is difficult.”
Erich Fromm, The Art of Loving

Michelle Obama
“We were planting seeds of change, the fruit of which we might never see. We had to be patient.”
Michelle Obama, Becoming
