More quotes by Buzz Aldrin
Once you've been first, it cannot be done again. Not by you, not by anyone else.
Buzz Aldrin
I felt pretty confident in relieving myself, since I had the urge.
Buzz Aldrin
When I am getting ready to cross a street, I look both ways before crossing. My bones, my muscles, are not what they used to be, so I am careful when I go up and down stairs, because I've heard stories of older people falling and having very disabling injuries. I have enough things that begin to go a little bit wrong as I get a little bit older.
Buzz Aldrin
Armstrong described the lunar surface as 'beautiful.' I thought to myself, 'It's not really beautiful. It's magnificent that we're here, but what a desolate place we are visiting.'
Buzz Aldrin
We need the next generation to be motivated and to push technological boundaries, to seek out new innovations.
Buzz Aldrin
I came to dedicate my life to opening space to the average person and crafting designs for new spaceships that could take us far from home. But since Apollo ended, such travels were only in our collective memory.
Buzz Aldrin
This is the LM pilot. I'd like to take this opportunity to ask every person listening in, whoever and wherever they may be, to pause for a moment and contemplate the events of the past few hours and to give thanks in his or her own way.
Buzz Aldrin
The view from space is like having a globe on your desk -- it's a broadening experience.
Buzz Aldrin
Everyone who's been in space would, I'm sure, welcome the opportunity for a return to the exhilarating experiences there.
Buzz Aldrin
Ray Bradbury is one who is contributing to the understanding of the imagination and the curiosity of the human race.
Buzz Aldrin
I didn't start skiing until I was 50. My wife Lois taught me how to ski. I'm proficiently conservative.
Buzz Aldrin
Going back to the moon is not visionary in restoring space leadership for America. Like its Apollo predecessor, it will prove to be a dead end littered with broken spacecraft, broken dreams and broken policies.
Buzz Aldrin
There are a lot of reasons for not doing something. And if humanity had come up with all the reasons for not doing something we wouldn't have spread across the Earth the way we have. There's a curiosity, and I would submit that that curiosity will put human beings on the surface of Mars.
Buzz Aldrin
I want to reach a new generation. That's why I am Twittering now. I have a BlackBerry, an iPhone and a Mac.
Buzz Aldrin
We feel that this stands as a symbol of the insatiable curiosity of all mankind to explore the unknown.
Buzz Aldrin
In Mars, we've been given a wonderful set of moons where we can send continuous numbers of people.
Buzz Aldrin
I inherited depression from my mother's side of the family. Her father committed suicide. She committed suicide the year before I went to the moon.
Buzz Aldrin
I still say, 'Shoot for the moon you might get there.'
Buzz Aldrin
I suggest that going to Mars means permanence on the planet - a mission by which we are building up a confidence level to become a two-planet species.
Buzz Aldrin
'Anthony and the Magic Picture Frame' tells it like it really was in America's early space program - the adventure, the risks, and the rewards.
