Carl Sagan Quotes

I Don't Think Science Is Hard To Teach Because Humans Aren't Ready For It, Or Because It Arose Only Through A Fluke, Or Because, By And Large, We Don't Have The Brainpower To Grapple With It. Instead, The Enormous Zest For Science That I See In First-graders And The Lesson From The Remnant Hunter-gatherers Both Speak Eloquently: A Proclivity For Science Is Embedded Deeply Within Us, In All Times, Places, And Cultures. It Has Been The Means For Our Survival. It Is Our Birthright. When, Through Indifference, Inattention, Incompetence, Or Fear Of Skepticism, We Discourage Children From Science, We Are Disenfranchising Them, Taking From Them The Tools Needed To Manage Their Future.
