Kathleen Quinlan Quotes

How can the human race be, like, the only living form in the universe? There have to be other life forms out there. I believe it.

It would be selfish to believe that we are the only intelligent life in the universe.

I believe alien life is quite common in the universe, although intelligent life is less so. Some say it has yet to appear on planet Earth.

It's odd that invoking the possibility of alien influences should itself be a sign of madness. I don't see the need for it to explain history on earth, but I can't see any reason why the universe shouldn't be full of life.

To me, it's the kind of interesting question the human race should be investing in. Is there intelligent life out there? Are there other beings out there?

It's impossible that we're alone in the universe. Every time we think we're more special than others, we're proven wrong.

I believe that there may be intelligent life on other planets.

Should we find a second form of life right here on our doorstep, we could be confident that life is a truly cosmic phenomenon. If so, there may well be sentient beings somewhere in the galaxy wondering, as do we, if they are not alone in the universe.

With 'Extinction Machine,' I wanted to start some conversations about whether we're alone in the universe and what that might mean.

I've always thought that we, as human beings, would be naive and arrogant to pretend that we're the only life form in the galaxy.

People quite often think of the question 'Are we alone in the universe?' in terms of other civilizations out there: life forms that have reached at least our level of technological development.

I think obviously there is some kind of life form somewhere else. Whether it looks like the creature in 'Alien Autopsy,' I'm not sure.

The universe is very big - there's about 100,000 million galaxies in the universe, so that means an awful lot of stars. And some of them, I'm pretty certain, will have planets where there was life, is life, or maybe will be life. I don't believe we're alone.

Human beings have long wondered whether they are alone in the universe.

It's naive to think we're the only living beings in this universe.

The existence of life beyond Earth is an ancient human concern. Over the years, however, attempts to understand humanity's place in the cosmos through science often got hijacked by wishful thinking or fabricated tales.

The universe is almost 14 billion years old, and, wow! Life had no problem starting here on Earth! I think it would be inexcusably egocentric of us to suggest that we're alone in the universe.

I think anybody would have to be with out common sense to think there weren't aliens. There are billions of planets, and I am convinced Earth is not the only one that's inhabited. It would be quite an ego trip to think that. I think about it all the time.

This planet seems to be in such sorry shape. And I can't ever think about the rest of the universe without coming back home and thinking what the implications for life here would be if we were to really have some definitive proof of extraterrestrial life.

I believe in aliens. I think it would be way too selfish of us as mankind to believe we are the only lifeforms in the universe.

I actually think the chances that we'll find E.T. are pretty good.

I think it quite likely that we are the only civilization within several hundred light years; otherwise we would have heard radio waves.

I don't think we are the only planet that has life.

The human race may be the only intelligent beings in the galaxy.

The universe is large and old, and the ingredients for life as we know it are everywhere, so there's no reason to think that Earth would be unique in that regard. Whether of not the life became intelligent is a different question, and we'll see if we find that.
