Probability Quotes

The first step is to establish that something is possible; then probability will occur.

Your probability of dying on Mars is much higher than earth. Really, the ad for going to Mars would be like Shackleton's ad for going to the Antarctic: "It's gonna be hard. There's a good chance of death, going in a little can through deep space. You might land successfully. Once you land successfully, you'll be working nonstop to build the base."

Truth is stranger than fiction, because fiction is obliged to stick to probability, and truth ain't.
