Sagan's Pale Blue Dot
Carl Sagan puts planet Earth in its true perspective: "There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known." - Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space, Random House USA 1994.

"A human being is a part of a whole ,called by us UNIVERSE a part limited in time and space .He experiences himself ,his thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest .a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness .This delusion is a kind of prison for us ,restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us . Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in it's beauty" Albert Einstein
