A Pale Blue Dot
For no reason at all, the day I graduated from college, I decided that my entire education was dedicated to Carl Sagan and Jim Henson. I have no idea what that means. But they certainly embody my intellectual strivings... Sagan for his efforts to expose the beauty and wonder of humanness and Henson's love of the the art of human interaction. They both brought a humble, yet profound character to a world that rarely rewards either humility OR character.

This link (and most notably Sagan's comment) epitomize that humble truth of man's existence... but also the wondrous possibilities that await out tiny selves.
