Carl Sagan never said or wrote “I don’t want to believe, I want to know.” The internet is full of misattributions, and this is one of them. The author of this sentence is Paulo Bittencourt, who wrote the book “Liberated from Religion”.
      “I don’t want to believe, I want to know.”

  Author of the books “Liberated from Religion” and “Wasting Time on God”, Paulo Bittencourt was born in Paraná, Brazil, spent his childhood in Rio de Janeiro and studied Theology in São Paulo. Close to becoming a pastor, he had doubts, ventured through Europe and ended up settling in Austria. The book “Ethics”, by Bento de Espinosa (Baruch Spinoza), strengthened his skepticism and consolidated him as a freethinker.
