Billion Quotes

There were a billion lights out there on the horizon and I knew that all of them put together weren’t enough to light the darkness in the hearts of some men Picture Quote #1

Globalization was supposed to break down barriers between continents and bring all peoples together. But what kind of globalization do we have with over one billion people on the planet not having safe water to drink? Picture Quote #1

If we ever establish contact with intelligent aliens living on a planet around a distant star... They would be made of similar atoms to us. They could trace their origins back to the big bang 13.7 billion years ago, and they would share with us the universe’s future. However, the surest common culture would be mathematics Picture Quote #1

Ladies and gentlemen, a picture is not worth a thousand words. We found some pictures that are worth 500 billion words Picture Quote #1

When you factor in population growth, it’s clear that the mobility model that we have today simply will not work tomorrow. Four billion clean cars on the road are still four billion cars, and a traffic jam with no emissions is still a traffic jam Picture Quote #1

Can anything match that first fine discovery of the telephone and all it stood for? That first realization that, contained within ten simple digits, lay the infinitely possible? Out there... lay six billion ears, all the people in the world available for contact and mystery and insult, unable to resist the beckoning of one small and villainous forefinger Picture Quote #1

In the beginning there were only probabilities. The universe could only come into existence if someone observed it. It does not matter that the observers turned up several billion years later. The universe exists because we are aware of it Picture Quote #1

Every creature alive on the earth today represents an unbroken line of life that stretches back to the first primitive organism to appear on this planet; and that is about three billion years Picture Quote #1

The human brain is the last, and greatest, scientific frontier. It is truly an internal cosmos that lies contained within our skulls. The more than 100 billion nerve cells and trillion supporting cells that make up your brain and mine constitute the most elaborate structure in the known universe Picture Quote #1

The human brain is estimated to have about a hundred billion nerve cells, two million miles of axons, and a million billion synapses, making it the most complex structure, natural or artificial, on earth Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t sell my bike for all the money in the world. Not for a hundred million, trillion, billion dollars! Picture Quote #1

You are one of a kind, one in a billion, an incredible unique individual. The problem is, so is everybody else Picture Quote #1

Guard your light and protect it. Move it forward into the world and be fully confident that if we connect light to light to light, and join the lights together of the one billion young people in our world today, we will be enough to set our whole planet aglow Picture Quote #1

There’s a lot of money to pay for this... the oil revenues of that country could bring between $50 and $100 billion over the course of the next two or three years... We’re dealing with a country that can really finance its own reconstruction, and relatively soon Picture Quote #1

When you imagine that if all these 9 billion people claim all these resources, then the earth will explode Picture Quote #1

We can almost recycle everything now. If we lived within our means, by being prudent, the 7 billion people in the world could have everything they needed. Global politics should be moving in that direction. But we think as people and countries, not as a species Picture Quote #1

A three billion year old planet floating in the vast universe with mountains, seventy percent seas and oceans, fertile lands, immense forests, rivers and lakes, sea shores and deserts, this is where we humans have the privilege to live, the latest, most advanced newcomers in evolution. What an immense, incredible responsibility we have to be a right, positive element in the further evolution of that planet. That is the big question before us in the new century and millennium Picture Quote #1

It has taken four billion years of evolution to generate this kind of organism with this kind of brain, and yet we wake up in the morning and feel bored Picture Quote #1

Over 1 billion people have no access to clean drinking water, and more than 2.9 billion have no access to sanitation services. The reality is that a child dies every eight seconds from drinking contaminated water, and the sanitation trend is getting sharply worse, mostly because of the worldwide drift of the rural peasantry to urban slums Picture Quote #1

We are spending millions, if not billions of dollars every year on programs to fight the childhood obesity epidemic while giving almost $2 billion of taxpayer money to the junk food and fast food industries to make the epidemic worse Picture Quote #1

Every one of us is, in the cosmic perspective, precious. If a human disagrees with you, let him live. In a hundred billion galaxies, you will not find another Picture Quote #1

You know, if you’re caught with an ounce of cocaine, the chances are good you’re going to go to jail. If it happens repeatedly, you may go to jail for the rest of your life. But evidently, if you launder nearly a billion dollars for drug cartels and violate our international sanctions, your company pays a fine and you go home and sleep in your own bed at night, every single individual associated with this. I think that’s fundamentally wrong Picture Quote #1

In a world where nearly one billion people live near the edge of physical survival the relevance of intentional simplicity by the more affluent people of the world cannot be over estimated Picture Quote #1

If you let hydrogen gas alone for 13 billion years it will become giraffes, rose bushes and humans Picture Quote #1

I couldn’t resist the temptation to put in a null reference, simply because it was so easy to implement. This has led to innumerable errors, vulnerabilities, and system crashes, which have probably caused a billion dollars of pain and damage in the last forty years Picture Quote #1

For the first time in four billion years a living creature had contemplated himself and heard with a sudden, unaccountable loneliness, the whisper of the wind in the night reeds Picture Quote #1

We are 6.6 billion people now. We can only feed 4 billion. I don’t see 2 billion volunteers to disappear Picture Quote #1

I would be very happy to see 3.5 billion humans wiped out from the face of the earth within the next 150 or 200 years and I am quite prepared to go myself with this majority... let us all look forward to the day when the catastrophe strikes us down! Picture Quote #1

It is unacceptable that more than 1 billion people are hungry every day while another billion are obese Picture Quote #1

There is no technical reason why we could not feed a world of nine billion people. Hunger is a matter of buying power, not of shortages Picture Quote #1
