When we think of scientists, we hear a man's voice.

I don't really understand why people are so interested in me, personally. I'm just a curator. I'm just telling people things I think are cool.

I'm such a generalist. I love everything. If I had the opportunity, I think I would do about 10 different degrees, five different master's degrees, probably as many Ph.D.s, and you can't do that.

The man’s words were as deep and dark as midnight

In science, every question answered leads to 10 more. I love that science can never, ever be finished. From a young age, people think, 'Science is hard and boring.' We don't tell children, 'Yes, you have to learn these formulae and theorems, but then you go on to learn about nuclear reactions and stars.'

I like movies that resonate, that give voice to the voiceless.
