It is because you yourself fear the propaganda created, after all, only by the stupidity of your own bigots. — Isaac Asimov

To the rest of the Galaxy, if they are aware of us at all, Earth is but a pebble in the sky. To us it is home, and all the home we know.

There can never be a man so lost as one who is lost in the vast and intricate corrdiors of his own lonely mind, where none may reach and none may save. There never was a man so helpless as one who cannot remember.

That is the most stupid thing yet. I tell you that I could despair of human intelligence when I see what can exist in men’s minds.
