it is better to have questions that can't be answered, then answers that can't be questioned

You don’t have to have religion to be an ethical, compassionate, caring human being.

"The suppression of uncomfortable ideas may be common in religion or in politics, but it is not the path to knowledge, and there's no place for it in the endeavor of science."

Every single sentence in this whole dialogue is quotable. “This combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces.”

"Science is more than a body of knowledge, it is also a way of thinking." Wonderful

Carl Sagan’s ability to speak so eloquently and precisely is amazing. You see him picking the right words but he barely makes a pause for it. It’s not an awkward silence or an “ehm”: he had a train of thought, and followed it to its conclusion. He is composed, never angry or emotionally irrational. I wish I could speak like Carl.
