Remembering Carl Sagan on the anniversary of his death

[quintessentone]

I've always had a place in my heart for his philosophical approach found in his many quotes, especially pointing out the truth that we have only one home and that we should take care of it and each other.
 

"Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves."
