As smug and pretentious Neil deGrasse Tyson is, he said it best, something along the lines of: What does this mean to us in the grand scheme of things? Nothing.
Are you saying that he said that about this in particular or that it's a quote he says about loads of things? xD
On a side note: I don't think we should hate on DeGrasse Tyson, because hating on him seems to be a meme that's just gone too far. Isn't it rooted in a literal 4-chan greentext? But I think he's polite, nice, and the things people interpret as disingenuity are just his presenting quirks. Like the "tweeting the same mirror joke every month" actually has a more neat explanation.
All I know is that with a mirror, you can kiss yourself but only on the lips
