Source: That line comes from Carl Sagan’s book The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark (published in 1995). It appears in Chapter 1, where Sagan argues that science, far from diminishing our sense of wonder, can deepen our reverence for the universe and our place within it.Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality.
