I am sorry to say that there is too much point to the wisecrack that life is extinct on other planets because their scientists were more advanced than ours.
John Kennedy
When I investigate and when I discover that the forces of the heavens and the planets are within ourselves, then truly I seem to be living among the gods.
Leon Battista Alberti
To hear some men talk of the government, you would suppose that Congress was the law of gravitation, and kept the planets in their places.
Wendell Phillips
[on his early dream to be an astronomer] I could study the stars and the planets forever. I always wanted to know why, why . . . Pictures changed my mind. I was too far along in the movie business. But when I go back to Caltech now and hear about things I...
Frank Capra
I would like to see us get this place right first before we have the arrogance to put significantly flawed civilizations out onto other planets, even though they may be utterly uninhabited.
Patrick Stewart
Perhaps I seek certain utopian things, space for human honour and respect, landscapes not yet offended, planets that do not exist yet, dreamed landscapes. Very few people seek these images today.
Werner Herzog
I have this new theory about films. It`s almost like astrology, where if we started on a Tuesday the film will be different than if we started on a Wednesday. Not because of the planets. It`s that sometimes you start with the wrong balance and the whole t...
Gus Van Sant
When people tell me to `get started,` I think they are being incredibly blunt and presumptuous. Not everyone has their planets lined up for marriage and kids by their mid-30s and why should there be a stampede of bad choices because of external social pre...
Anna Johnson
When friendship disappears then there is a space left open to that awful loneliness of the outside world which is like the cold space between the planets. It is an air in which men perish utterly.
Alexandre Barros
Unaware of the absurdity of it, we introduce our own petty household rules into the economy of the universe for which the life of generations, peoples, of entire planets, has no importance in relation to the general development.
Aimee Litka
There are several sorts of religions, not only in different parts of the island, but even in every town; some worshipping the sun, others the moon or one of the planets.
Andrew Corty
Their toys are alive and can sometimes come to their aid, or get lost and Olie has to find them. They go to other planets. They go to the ice cream planet.
William Joyce
The sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do.
Alex Gruzen
The Sun, with all the planets revolving around it, and depending on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as though it had nothing else in the Universe to do.
Alex Gruzen
Saturn is not going away, ... Neither are the planets. What`s the rush? Why not delay our space probes a bit, make them smaller and more sophisticated and use solar power?
Michio Kaku
One summer when my parents went on vacation, my friend and I used every room of the house for different [ Star Wars ] planets, ... That particular war lasted for seven days. I also have the entire LEGO range so far which are fun. My girl loves Harry Potte...
Mark Hamilton
My father was always very interested in space. I watch Star Trek and all those things, but I always had a different picture in my mind... maybe closer to Alien. I don`t see it in space as much as I do see it in different planets, with each having its own ...
Sigourney Weaver
I was pretty good at planets in our solar system, so I thought, well, it?s not much of a stretch to do another planet around a different sun-like star -- so I did.
Ashley Perry
For a long time, we`ve worked on detecting planets with whatever was at hand, making use of existing small telescopes or even amateur telescopes. It`s time to move on to the next stage.
