We're not responsible, he thought. This planet is a temporary affair. It's whizzing with all kinds of other ones, a whole range of planetary stuff, toward a star in the Milky Way. On that kind of a planet we're not responsible, he thought.

About This Quote

This planet is a temporary affair. It's whizzing with all kinds of other ones, a whole range of planetary stuff, toward a star in the Milky Way. On that kind of a planet we're not responsible means that this planet is not the only one in the universe. There are millions of other planets out there that are just as good as this one.

We are only here for a short time and then we will be gone to another planet that holds other life forms just as amazing as us. This planet is just a stopover.
