I think the Sagan quotes are some of the most profound ideas I've ever come across in science.
From Our Place In The Cosmos: "Star-stuff contemplating the stars"
And from We Are All Connected: "The cosmos is also within us- we're made of star-stuff"
It instills a real feeling of belonging and makes me feel at home among my heavenly fathers in the sky (the sun and stars). Far more uplifting in my own opinion than the idea of a personal creator.
