David Attenborough Zitate

The most extraordinary thing about trying to piece together the missing links in the evolutionary story is that when you do find a missing link and put it in the story, you suddenly need all these other missing links to connect to the new discovery. The gaps and questions actually increase - it's extraordinary.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Das Außergewöhnlichste an dem Versuch, die fehlenden Links in der evolutionären Geschichte zusammenzusetzen, ist, dass, wenn Sie einen fehlenden Link finden und in die Story einfügen, Sie plötzlich alle diese fehlenden Links benötigen, um sich mit der neuen Entdeckung zu verbinden. Die Lücken und Fragen nehmen tatsächlich zu - es ist außergewöhnlich.

When I look for new books, I often struggle to find things that challenge and entertain me. This has caused me to spend a number of cycles thinking about where I can get the serendipitous book discovery experience that we had in physical book stores.

I've always had questions about what it meant to be a protester, to be in the minority. Are the people who are trying to find peace, who are trying to have the Constitution apply to everybody, are they really the radicals? We're not protesting from the outside. We're inside.

One of the things that people complain about is loneliness, disconnectedness. If you live in a society where your life is rarely threatened and most of your relationships are more on an economic exchange basis, then this could leave people feeling less connected.

And I think that even today, New York still has more of this unexpected quality around every corner than any place else. It's something quite extraordinary.

If there is anything good to be said about my particular line of work, it's that we get to tell people the news they need to hear, and to put it in context. To get to that - for one hour every night on the 'PBS NewsHour,' and for an additional half-hour every Friday night on 'Washington Week,' we have to slog through a lot of tough stuff.

I don't go on set with an army of people because the most expensive elements of a movie production are the plane tickets, the hotel rooms, food and gasoline. If you're willing to discover new colleagues in the place that you are, you can save a ton of money.
