We will build new ships to carry man forward into the universe, to gain a new foothold on the moon and to prepare for new journeys to the worlds beyond our own. – George W. Bush
In New York, the Mets are winning the World Series in 1969; that was pretty big, but I would say the moon landing was right up there with the Mets in the World Series. So it made a, a big impression on me as a little kid. – Michael J. Massimino
It’s the opinion of some that crops could be grown on the moon; which raises the fear that it may not be long before we’re paying somebody not to. – Franklin P. Jones
‘The Moon Rabbit’ is laying against the bunker, dreaming and thinking about life and dreaming the impossible possible and creating its own true stories. – Florentijn Hofman
I’m the diva from the future. The next gig’s on the moon. Catch me while you can. – Natasha Bedingfield
Under a pulsating full moon, the gussied-up Billie Jean King National Tennis Center seems much softer and prettier at night, with the fountains bubbling and fans without tickets to the big stadium sitting in the plaza and watching a big screen. – George Vecsey
I was the class clown, you know, that kind of thing, and I gathered around me a group of guys who also were silly. I was in all the plays and everything. But I don’t know, at that time show businesses looked like the moon, you know, it was so far away. I wanted to be a radio announcer. – Dick Van Dyke
Our emotions are constantly being propelled by some new face in the sky, some new rocket to the moon, some new sound in the ear, but they are the same emotions. – Merce Cunningham
The ‘clean energy’ challenge deserves a commitment akin to the Manhattan project or the Apollo moon landing. – Martin Rees
Here I am at the turn of the millennium and I’m still the last man to have walked on the moon, somewhat disappointing. It says more about what we have not done than about what we have done. – Eugene Cernan
I think we should balance the federal budget tomorrow. I’m optimistic. I think Americans are optimistic. We went to the moon; we can balance the federal budget. – Gary Johnson
One of the most important things about the geology on the moon is your descriptions of what you see, comparing them to things that you’ve seen on Earth so that the geologists and the scientists on the ground would know what you’re talking about; and then take pictures of them. – Eugene Cernan
Apollo 13, as you may remember, gave us a reactor that is bubbling away right now somewhere in the Pacific. It’s supposed to be bubbling away on the moon, but it’s in the Pacific Ocean instead. – David R. Brower
If you’re going to go to the moon, you don’t shoot the rocket right at the moon. You have to go at it obliquely. – Drew Houston
I love to think that animals and humans and plants and fishes and trees and stars and the moon are all connected. – Gloria Vanderbilt
Our moon was born too small to harbor life. It came from the collision of a Mars-sized world into the primordial Earth. From that colossal crunch spun a disk of rocks that condensed into a satellite. – Gregory Benford
From doing A Moon for the Misbegotten, I’ve learned that nobody’s love can save anybody else. There are people who want to die, and nothing or nobody will stop them. The only one who can save you is yourself. – Gabriel Byrne
They dined on mince, and slices of quince, Which they ate with a runcible spoon; And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand, They danced by the light of the moon. – Edward Lear
When I was younger, I’d make a point of driving to the middle of nowhere and spending an evening with just me, the wind, and the moon. Your skin crawls up an octave. This is what I tap into when I’m working on horror films. I’m just afraid a time will come when I lose touch with that part of myself. – Christopher Young
I think we’re going to the moon because it’s in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It’s by the nature of his deep inner soul… we’re required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream. – Neil Armstrong
My first two records were more energetic; Phantom Moon is subtle, quiet; so these various reactions are just something I expected. – Duncan Sheik
I want to be the Letterman of metal. I want five nights a week, Monday to Friday, 11 to 12, live. I always shoot for the moon. – Eddie Trunk
I don’t think there is much value in trying to use the moon as a base to go to Mars. That’s going into one gravity belt and having to get back out of it again. And the moon doesn’t have a lot to offer as a resource base. – Edgar Mitchell
I will forever be a Bond. It’s a small group of men who’ve made this role. Someone said, More men have walked on the moon than have played James Bond.’ – Pierce Brosnan
I want to be the first. If they’d let me go to the moon, I’d crawl all the way to Cape Kennedy just to do it. I’d like to go to the moon, but I don’t want to be the second man to go there. – Evel Knievel
When you head on out to the Moon, in very short order, and you get a chance to look back at the Earth, that horizon slowly curves around in upon himself, and all of sudden you’re looking at something that is very strange, but yet is very, very familiar, because you’re beginning to see the Earth evolve. – Eugene Cernan
Some ways of using our thinking are really inspiring. There are people who use their thinking to race cars. People use their thinking to build rockets to the moon. It’s all just a use of your thinking. – Michael Nesmith
