No stupid questions Sagan

Sagan quote: 1."maybe when you grow up, you'll be the first one to find out" 2.This quote makes me think about in school Ive never liked learning stuff that I didn't want to hear about. And it just makes me want to try harder in my education.and try to make a name for myself in the world.Ive always kind of wanted a quote like this or even a better one that would want to make me put more time into my education and how much i tryed to get good grades. I feel like when im in class im always the one behind and i dont want that to keep happeing. Ive always just wanted a class where the teacher said you can write something completly on want you want to do. because i have so many topics that i want to find things out on. I take a trip to new york every year to lake erie and i really want to be able to do a project on something about the lake. maybe I will find out? 3.who is the person writing this?
