• La ciencia es mucho más que un conjunto de conocimientos. Es una forma de pensar. Esta es la clave de su éxito. La ciencia nos invita a aceptar los hechos, incluso cuando no se ajustan a nuestras ideas preconcebidas. Nos aconseja barajar hipótesis alternativas y ver cuáles se ajustan mejor a los hechos. Nos insta a mantener un delicado equilibrio entre la apertura sin trabas a las nuevas ideas, por heréticas que sean, y el escrutinio escéptico más riguroso de todo: las nuevas ideas y la sabiduría establecida.

  Carl Sagan
