“But we are more than logical. We are human beings, and we have faith, and we have hope, and we can work.”

What is a scientist after all? It is a curious man looking through a keyhole, the keyhole of nature, trying to know what’s going on.

But we are more than logical. We are human beings, and we have faith, and we have hope, and we can work.

We are facing a formidable enemy in this field. It is the hunters… and to convince them to leave their guns on the wall is going to be very difficult.

The real cure for our environmental problems is to understand that our job is to salvage Mother Nature.

The biggest obstacle was mixing abortion with overpopulation. These are two things that have nothing to do with each other.

Water and air, the two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans.

I remember being about six years old, for the first day of school, and sitting in the back of a Chrysler, pretending to cry while listening to Tracy Chapman.

I like the nucleus that we have. I’m excited. I want to be here as long as possible. It’s like family. I love being here.

Love is everything it’s cracked up to be. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for.
