“Researchers have proven scientifically, that humans are all one people. The colour of our ancestor's skin & ultimately my skin & your skin is a consequence of ultra violet light, of latitude & climate. Despite our recent sad conflicts here in the U.S. There's really no such thing as race. We are one species – each of us much, much more alike than different.
We all come from Africa. We are all of the same stardust. We are all going to live & die on the same planet, a Pale Blue Dot in the vastness os space. We have to work together.”
Bill Nye
“You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, & a compulsion to do something about it.
From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty.
You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck, & drag him a quarter of a million miles out & say:
“Look at that, you son of a bitch.”
Edgar Mitchell
“When you love someone, you love the person as they are & not as you'd like them to be.”
Leo Tolstoy
"Education is the great engine of personal development. It is through education that the daughter of a peasant can become a doctor, that the son of a mineworker can become the head of the mine, that a child of farm workers can become the president of a great nation. It is what we make out of what we have, not what we are given, that separates one person from another".
Nelson Mandela

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
