Quotes: Puny Earthlings
What are the lessons to be learned from this journey of the mind? That humans are emotionally fragile, perennially gullible, hopelessly ignorant masters of an insignificantly small speck in the cosmos. Have a nice day.
Neil deGrasse Tyson, Seeing Isn't Believing (from Death By Black Hole)

"Obviously, people from other planets are going to have extra powers that Earth people don't have. Anybody who has ever watched television knows that."
— The Venusian Clarence Yojimbo in Alan Mendelsohn, the Boy from Mars by Daniel Pinkwater

Organic life is nothing but a genetic mutation, an accident. Your lives are measured in years and decades. You wither and die. We are eternal, the pinnacle of evolution and existence. Before us, you are nothing.
Sovereign, Mass Effect

Puny Earthlings! none of your blood will be shed as long as your men builds our Mechs and Starships, Your Women become our sex slaves, and your children become our science experiments
