Astronauts are not superhuman. They lead ordinary lives and have varied personalities.

Some things just can't be described. And stepping onto the moon was one of them.

To me, money is a commodity that a person must have to function, not a goal in itself.

The decision to go to the moon is now appreciated and associated with President Kennedy's speech, but somebody else had told him it was a good idea. It turned out to be a good commitment, but it was a unique situation.

Walking around on the moon was significantly easier than we'd thought it would be. There weren't any balance problems, so you weren't tumbling over.

I don't go through life verbalizing what I feel.

I think I need to continue to think and plan and marry all of the different things that we could do that make transportation in space from the earth to the space station, from the earth to the moon to space stations around the moon to visiting an asteroid.
