Carl Sagan
“La guerra atómica es la negación de las virtudes del militar: nada tiene de valeroso apretar un botón letal.”
Carl Sagan, Contact

Vernon L. Smith
“But what is this thing we call experience? Beyond science is a personal experience shared by the ancients and all humans today, a sense of the awe and mystery of existence. For me this experience must count as an observation even if it si considered incommensurate with our rhetorical vision of the objective tests of science. That power to inspire awe is magically expressed in Carruth’s moving lines,

Like tide on a crescent sea-beach,
When the moon is new and thin,
Into our hearts high yearnings
Come welling and surging in:
Come from the mystic ocean
Whose rim no foot has trod,—
Some of us call it Longing,
And others call it God.

Materialism ignores any references to experiences of awe and mystery as evidence of the nonmaterial.”
Vernon L. Smith, The Evidence of Things Not Seen: Reflections on Faith, Science, and Economics
