Carl Sagan/Heartwarming

Sagan based a large amount of his career around discrediting the idea that science was cold and impersonal, and as such, he included many of these in his work.
In an episode of Star Trek: Enterprise, the characters land at Carl Sagan Memorial Station on Mars. The memorial at the station carries a particularly good quote of Sagan's.

"Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you."
