In the five decades of humankind's space exploration, we have sent a small number of these and similar messages into the universe, some riding with our interplanetary probes, others specifically broadcast via radio frequencies to distant galaxies where we hope someone may be listening. The Ancient Alien Question - Philip Coppens (ISBN 13: 978-1-60163-198-5) 
 The best thing you can do for your fellow,
next to rousing his conscience, is - not to give him things
to think about, but to wake things up that are in him...
to make him think things for himself - George MacDonald
