Pale Blue Dot (Interlude) - Story Of The Year[00:00:00]
The earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena[00:00:02]
On it everyone you love everyone you know[00:00:08]
Everyone you ever heard of[00:00:12]
Every human being who ever was lived out their lives[00:00:14]
Thousands of confident religions ideologies[00:00:19]
And economic doctrines[00:00:22]
Every teacher of morals every corrupt politician[00:00:24]
Every hero and coward[00:00:27]
Every creator and destroyer of civilization[00:00:28]
Every saint and sinner in the history of our species[00:00:31]
Think of the rivers of blood spilled[00:00:34]
By all those generals and emperors so that[00:00:38]
In glory and triumph they could[00:00:40]
Become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot[00:00:42]
Our posturings our imagined self importance[00:00:46]
The delusion that we have some privileged position in the universe[00:00:51]
Are challenged by this point of pale light[00:00:54]
And underscores our responsibility[00:00:58]
And to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot[00:01:00]
