If we are alone in the Universe, it sure seems like an awful waste of space.
--Carl Sagan (1934 – 1996) in Contact
Sagan's idea is based on Thomas Carlyle's (1795 - 1881) words On other stars:
"If they be inhabited, what a scope for misery and folly. It they be not inhabited, what a waste of space."
