• La Tierra es el único mundo conocido hasta ahora que alberga vida. No hay ningún otro lugar, al menos en un futuro próximo, al que nuestra especie pueda emigrar. Visitar, sí. Establecerse, todavía no. Nos guste o no, por el momento la Tierra es nuestro lugar. Se ha dicho que la astronomía es una experiencia de humildad y de formación del carácter..... Para mí, subraya nuestra responsabilidad de ser más amables los unos con los otros y de preservar y apreciar el punto azul pálido, el único hogar que hemos conocido.

• A man never is happy, but spends his whole life in striving after something which he thinks will make him so; he seldom attains his goal, and when he does, it is only to be disappointed; he is mostly shipwrecked in the end, and comes into harbor with mast and rigging gone. And then, it is all one whether he has been happy or miserable; for his life was never anything more than a present moment always vanishing; and now it is over.

• Every age has its dreams, its symbols of romance. Past generations were moved by the graceful power of the great windjammers, by the distant whistle of locomotives pounding through the night, by the caravans leaving on the Golden Road to Samarkand, by quinqueremes of Nineveh from distant Ophir . . . Our grandchildren will likewise have their inspiration-among the equatorial stars. They will be able to look up at the night sky and watch the stately procession of the Ports of Earth-the strange new harbors where the ships of space make their planetfalls and their departures.

• Uno de los fundamentos de un buen sistema de innovación es la diversidad. En cierto modo, cuanto más sólida es la cultura (nacional, institucional, generacional o de otro tipo), menos probable es que albergue un pensamiento innovador. Las creencias comunes y arraigadas, las normas generalizadas y los estándares de comportamiento y rendimiento son enemigos de las nuevas ideas. Cualquier sociedad que se precie de ser armoniosa y homogénea tiene muy pocas probabilidades de catalizar el pensamiento idiosincrásico. La supresión de la innovación no tiene por qué ser manifiesta. Puede tratarse simplemente de que la gente camine con un acuerdo tácito y plenamente cómoda con el statu quo.

• The tempest was terrible and separated me from my [other] vessels that night, putting every one of them in desperate straits, with nothing to look forward to but death. Each was certain the others had been destroyed. What man ever born, not excepting Job, who would not have died of despair, when in such weather seeking safety for my son, my brother, shipmates, and myself, we were forbidden [access to] the land and the harbors which I, by God's will and sweating blood, had won for Spain?

• We can see now that we Americans were caught unprepared, because we were ordinary human beings, following the best advice we had at the time. No one would have guessed in 1941 that we would be attacked in such an unsportsmanlike manner as we were. No one could have visualized Pearl Harbor, either out there or in Washington. But if we had known then what we know now, we would have expected an attack in 1941.

• Sometimes, they wait. Sometimes, you see the dead come in to the harbor, and their old dogs are all along the docks, wagging their tails, for they have waited for their masters and mistresses for many years. You see mothers who have missed their sons. Fathers who had never spoken of love to their children, ready to embrace them as they voyage from the end of life. It shows the lies of this world, you see. We are wrong about so many things here. Mankind has done terrible things, yet we are forgiven.
