About this Quote

In this quote, Carl Sagan highlights the real essence of science. He recommends that science is not just a collection of truths and info, however rather a mindset. It is a frame of mind that includes crucial thinking, curiosity, and a continuous look for understanding. Science is not limited to a particular set of knowledge, but rather it is a constant process of questioning, exploring, and discovering. It is a method of approaching the world and seeking responses to the unknown. Sagan's words advise us that science is not practically what we understand, but how we believe and approach the unknown with an open and inquisitive mind.
