Seth Shostak Zitate

Like prospecting in the 19th century, reconnaissance of the asteroids would of necessity take place in an arena where trouble is likely and help is distant. Heroic stories of individual triumph and failure, set on landscapes never seen by humankind, are in the cards.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Wie das Prospektieren im 19. Jahrhundert würde die Erkundung der Asteroiden notwendigerweise in einer Arena stattfinden, in der Schwierigkeiten wahrscheinlich sind und die Hilfe weit entfernt ist. Heroische Geschichten über individuellen Triumph und Misserfolg, die auf Landschaften entstehen, die die Menschheit noch nie gesehen hat, stehen auf dem Spiel.

I would not necessarily say that scientists and artists need to collaborate with one another, but it would be helpful for them to talk to one another to, perhaps, give rise to specific ideas that may or may not be carried out together.

Family is so central to Afghan life that all Afghan stories are family stories. Family is something I simply can't resist because all the great themes of human life - duty, grief, sacrifice, love, envy - you find all those things within families.

In the 20th century, the Muslim world created a vision of religious nationalism. Turkey, for example, had to be ethnically Turkish. Kurds, Armenians, other minorities didn't have a place in such a vision of a nation-state.

Man, coaching is a hard job, and it requires a lot of time... I hear stories from coaches who tell me that players call them in the middle of the night not knowing where they parked their car.

Just as it had taken centuries to determine the true nature of the universe, so also the search for the beginning of human life proceeded well into the 20th century.
