"My goal is to get people to think — to understand that the universe is larger than them and their problems."

"You know, the universe is a pretty big place. If it's just us, seems like an awful waste of space."

"I'm not a fan of people who think they have all the answers. The universe is too vast and complex for anyone to have all the answers."

"I think it's important to remind people that we are all made of stardust. We are all connected to the cosmos."

"The universe is not about you. It's about everything."
