Carl Sagan, A Life

Posted by Ronald Forthwith on October 11, 1999 at 09:59:02:

Keay Davidson is the science editor for the San Francisco Examiner. There
are some staggering comments in his book about Sagan, including Sagan's
marijuana use, (mildly amusing) but what was over-the-top, Sagan admitted
believing in dreams as messengers. He reminded himself, "listen closely, you sonofabitch of the morning, this stuff is real!"
