8	->This is our harbinger. It brings good tidings.\
9	We will be dead when it reaches you. Our planet is dying. We do not have time to save ourselves. We only have time to ready ourselves, and to send a message.\
10	We have seen the signals from those who came before us. They were different, and we still don't really understand them. But if there were those who came before, there may be those who come after. It is in this hope that our harbingers travel.\
11	One has found you and learned your language so it can relay this message. Please listen.\
12	The galaxy is dark, and empty, and cold. It spins inevitably toward death. You will die too, one day. Perhaps you will have longer than we have. We hope so. But one day you too must vanish.\
13	Before that time comes, you must light the darkness. You must make the night less empty. We are all small, and the universe is vast. But a universe with voices saying "I am here" is far greater than a universe silent. One voice is small, but the difference between zero and one is as great as one and infinity.\
14	We waited too long. Our voice is gone to echoes. Find others while there is still time. Make a chorus.\
15	And if this finds you too late, and your time is also passing, please send this message on, so the next voice can speak against the darkness.

21	->Sure, in the end, it would probably all just come to nothing... like everything else. But for 50,000 years or more, whatever data I left behind would still be there.\

44	->''You realize that this is just a recording. [[VirtualGhost A clever one]]. But no doubt by now this sort of thing is commonplace and I look hopelessly old-fashioned... ''Bien.'' And perhaps the entire conversation is out of date and everything is well. But in case it is not, and since your here, I'm going to ask you to save the world for me. I hope that isn't too much trouble.''

50	->[{{Terraform}}ing] is a philosophical debate. Some people think the universe has a big sign on it that says 'Do not touch'. "Leave it alone, it was made this way, it is not in our purview as human beings to change anything." I can respect that view, although I disagree with it. ''I'' think the universe has a big sign on it that says, "Go forth and spread life". Because when I look around at the universe, I think ''life'' is the most amazing thing we see. It is just incredible. And we human beings are uniquely positioned to help spread life from [[InsignificantLittleBluePlanet this little tiny planet]], which it seems to have started on, beyond. And... that's our gift. Earth's gift to the universe, I think, is the gift of life!''
51	-->-- '''Dr. Christopher [=McKay=]''', a UsefulNotes/{{NASA}} planetary scientist

53	->If you can hear this, you're alone. The only thing left of me is the sound of my voice. I don't know if any of us made it. Did we win? Did we lose? I don't know. But either way, it's over. So let me tell you who we were. Let me tell you who you are. Someone once asked me if I had learned anything from it all. So let me tell you what I learned. Everyone dies alone. But if you meant something to someone, if you helped someone, or loved someone, if even a single person remembers you, then maybe you never really die. And maybe, this isn't the end at all.

60	->''"My hope is that your mother and I have already welcomed you to a new, safe place where the spirit of Krypton can live on, and this message is unnecessary. But if the opposite is true, know that you carry in your heart the memory of your city, your planet... and your family."''
61	-->-- '''Zor-El's recording''', ''ComicBook/LastDaughterOfKrypton''
