Carl Sagan Sky Quotations

The sky calls to us. If we do not destroy ourselves, we will one day venture to the stars.

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.

Human beings grew up in forests; we have a natural affinity for them. How lovely a tree is, straining toward the sky.

Is mankind alone in the universe? Or are there somewhere other intelligent beings looking up into their night sky from very different worlds and asking the same kind of question?

Every time you look up at the sky, every one of those points of light is a reminder that fusion power is extractable from hydrogen and other light elements, and it is an everyday reality throughout the Milky Way Galaxy.

Our ancestors lived out of doors. They were as familiar with the night sky as most of us are with our favorite television programs.

We are the children equally of the Sky and the Earth.
