Honesty is very sexy.
I've always been a bit of a dreamer. I've always loved to look and seek, and explore and find out.
There is so much wonder and joy in science, about understanding how the world works and why the world is the way it is. It's not just for academics. It is a thing that's available to everyone.
Newton had a very good description of gravity, back in the day, and then Einstein came along and dug a little bit deeper. Science is like peeling an onion. You go deeper and deeper and deeper, and it doesn't stop. It's not like you will get to a right answer.
At the heart of science is experimentation. Science doesn't care what you think. What's important is experimenting and actually working stuff out.
People think of science like somehow that's the answer, and that it's all about right answers, but science is a lens that we look at the world through.
I've found the thing in life that I adore, which is working in science television. It's just a big adventure, really.
When people see the terrible scenes of violence on television, when we mourn the death of each and every American man and woman in uniform or a civilian that's killed, that it's hard to see the progress that's being made and it's hard to believe that this is all going to come out for the better.
Harshness to me is giving somebody false hopes and not following through. That's harsh. Telling some guy or some girl who've got zero talent that they have zero talent actually is a kindness.

(He dropped his hungry gaze to her lap. ) Or there, either. (Grace)
Propaganda requires a permanent network of communication so that it can systematically stifle reflection with emotive or utopian slogans. Its pace is usually fast.
