But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

  • -- Carl Sagan 卡尔·萨根

但是，一些天才被嘲笑的事实并不意味着所有被嘲笑的人都是天才。他们嘲笑哥伦布，嘲笑富尔顿，嘲笑莱特兄弟。但他们也嘲笑小丑博佐。
