I liked this one that I found somewhere:

It is time to bring this hopeful and reflective topic back, especially during this 2020 holiday season. Here's one from Winston Churchill I was reminded of this morning -

It was during my enchanted days of travel that the idea came to me, which, through the years, has come into my thoughts again and again and always happily—the idea that geology is the music of the earth. -- Hans Cloos, 1954

I like that a lot. As a "reformed geologist" (defined here as a guy with a geology degree who no longer earns his living as a geologist), I think of the science in appreciative and happy terms.
Was talking to a retired air traffic controller the other day and he observed: ATCs and geologists have something in common--the ATC must visualize a patch of sky over the earth's surface in 3D, and a geologist must visualize a patch of the crust beneath the surface in 3D.
