Quote wrongly attributed to Carl Sagan, who never said or wrote these words. It is not in any of his books, articles and TV shows, nor in any of his interviews. The author of this sentence is Paulo Bittencourt, a freethinker, humanist and atheist, who wrote the books Liberated from Religion and Wasting Time on God.
