Well, I think we tried very hard not to be overconfident, because when you get overconfident, that's when something snaps up and bites you.

The exciting part for me, as a pilot, was the landing on the moon. That was the time that we had achieved the national goal of putting Americans on the moon. The landing approach was, by far, the most difficult and challenging part of the flight. Walking on the lunar surface was very interesting, but it was something we looked on as reasonably safe and predictable. So the feeling of elation accompanied the landing rather than the walking.

Figure out how to build a brand and stick by it so people know what to expect.

Shoot for the stars but if you happen to miss shoot for the moon instead.

As I stepped on the moon, I looked around, dazed...magnifice nt. The vast, sandy silver surface was almost illusory.

Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon. July 1969 AD. We came in peace for all mankind.

Houston, Tranquillity Base here. The Eagle has landed.
