“It will not be we who reach Alpha Centauri, and the other nearby stars. It will be a species very like us – but with more of our strengths and fewer of our weaknesses.”— Carl Sagan

This one has been my go to for years and years.

It gives me comfort. In that we probably won’t every get there, because of our evolutionary failures as a species, but that’s ok. Because the next species or evolution of our kind will stand a better chance.
