As far as I'm concerned, Enceladus has become the go-to place in our solar system for issues bearing on extraterrestrial life. It's a great place to examine extraterrestrial organic chemistry that is water-based and, therefore, like biotic chemistry on Earth.
Hollywood usually guesses that extraterrestrials would only be interested in one of three things: (1) They want to breed with us, because their own reproductive machinery is on the blink; (2) They want Earth's resources; or (3) They want the Earth. All of it.
Did universal charity prevail, earth would be a heaven, and hell a fable.
Nobody sees the obvious, nobody observes the ordinary. There are more miracles in a square yard of earth than in all the fables of the Church.
The fairest thing in nature, a flower, still has its roots in earth and manure.
What I believe we need to do is to be the smartest, the healthiest, the fairest and the most prosperous nation on earth. So in order to become the healthiest nation on earth, we need a different health care system.
So be it. God created profoundly fallible creatures on this earth, and human history is mostly the story of error and accident.
'E.T.' was far-fetched. 'E.T.' was this wimpy-looking kid that came to Earth to pick some plants, but he came from the Andromeda Galaxy to do that.
If, when I leave this earth, I'm remembered for 'Fargo,' so be it. But I think old Marge Gunderson is gonna get a run for her money with Olive Kittredge.
I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different.
Pick a flower on Earth and you move the farthest star.
The farthest place on earth is the hour that is just over. Make the best use of the hour that has just begun!
With a firm and steadfast mind one should hold under all conditions, that everywhere the earth is below and the sky above, and to the energetic man, every region is his fatherland.
I love the Olympic Games. The Olympics are an event that few can fathom but all can enjoy, and that's why athletes work our whole lives to put on the greatest show on Earth.
My sisters are my favorite people on earth.
Krakow is one of my favorite places on earth. It is a medieval city full of young people. A wonderful, striking combination.
Vancouver is one of my favorite places on earth. It's gray and rainy there a lot of the time, but for some reason, even though it's gray and rainy, I feel like it's a sunny day.
We are, perhaps, uniquely among the earth's creatures, the worrying animal. We worry away our lives, fearing the future, discontent with the present, unable to take in the idea of dying, unable to sit still.
Do not give in too much to feelings. A overly sensitive heart is an unhappy possession on this shaky earth.
Felicity Huffman is just flawless; she's above and beyond TV and movies and this Earth.
