Earth
Aliens didn't come down to Earth and give us technology. We invented it ourselves. Therefore it can never be alienating; it can only be an expression of our humanity.
We survived on natural resources, so we should take care of the earth. When I leave home, I do things like switching off the heat and lights.
When it's said and done, the one thing I want to leave on this earth is hope. I have felt hopelessness, and it's a terrible feeling. Hopelessness will destroy you. I want to bring hope to other people.
We've stayed really normal and down to Earth I think, and haven't let the success thing go to our head.
The one thing all humans share is that we all inhabit the same limited amount of real estate, which is Planet Earth.
Roll on, deep and dark blue ocean, roll. Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain. Man marks the earth with ruin, but his control stops with the shore.
Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon. July 1969 AD. We came in peace for all mankind.
Man must at all costs overcome the Earth's gravity and have, in reserve, the space at least of the Solar System.
Mankind will not forever remain on Earth but, in the pursuit of light and space, will first timidly emerge from the bounds of the atmosphere and then advance until he has conquered the whole of circumsolar space.
Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
Perhaps we've never been visited by aliens because they have looked upon Earth and decided there's no sign of intelligent life.
It is odd that we have so little relationship with nature, with the insects and the leaping frog and the owl that hoots among the hills calling for its mate. We never seem to have a feeling for all living things on the earth.
As a chef, I feel that it is my duty to make the most of what the earth gives us.
Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual).
The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.
I always consider the settlement of America with reverence and wonder, as the opening of a grand scene and design in providence, for the illumination of the ignorant and the emancipation of the slavish part of mankind all over the earth.
I believe cats to be spirits come to earth. A cat, I am sure, could walk on a cloud without coming through.
It's a brilliant surface in that sunlight. The horizon seems quite close to you because the curvature is so much more pronounced than here on earth. It's an interesting place to be. I recommend it.
The fairest thing in nature, a flower, still has its roots in earth and manure.
Let us not forget that the cultivation of the earth is the most important labor of man. When tillage begins, other arts will follow. The farmers, therefore, are the founders of civilization.
