Fighter pilots have ice in their veins. They don't have emotions. They think, anticipate. They know that fear and other concerns cloud your mind from what's going on and what you should be involved in.

More quotes by Buzz Aldrin
The universe is the way it is. It's not going to be changed by supplications.
Buzz Aldrin
We need to begin thinking about building permanence on the Red Planet, not just have voyagers do some experiments, plant a flag and claim success. Having them go there, repeat this, in my view, is dim-witted. Why not stay there?
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
For the future, primarily, we must educate people in science, engineering, technology and math.

The pilgrims on the Mayflower landed at Plymouth Rock. To my knowledge, they didn't wait around for a return trip to Europe. You settle some place with a purpose. If you don't want to do that, stay home. You avoid an awful lot of risks by not venturing outward.
Buzz Aldrin
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.
Buzz Aldrin
I didn't start skiing until I was 50. My wife Lois taught me how to ski. I'm proficiently conservative.

Over the years, I think I've matured in my spiritual evolution and development to understand a bit more than the narrow religious thinking - to move beyond that through a sort of perfection of the grandiose nature of the universe, and how perfect it is it in its sense and how satisfied we should all be in our place in that.
Buzz Aldrin
No dream is too high for those with their eyes in the sky!
Buzz Aldrin
The energy varies with the square of the velocity, so if you need five times the velocity, that's 25 times the energy.
Buzz Aldrin
My Sunday mornings are spent in a recovery meeting in Pacific Palisades.
Buzz Aldrin
Don't waste your time on beaming people up or down. Instead, consider gravity waves as advanced physics of the universe that could be used to travel interstellar distances.
Buzz Aldrin
It's real easy to manufacture what you think the people want to hear. But that's not very honest.
Buzz Aldrin
Trips to Mars, the Moon, even orbit, will require that we provide astrotourists with as many comforts from home as possible, including paying each other.
Buzz Aldrin
I participated with great honor in becoming one of the first to land on the moon, and now I am devoting and have devoted many years of my life to enabling Americans to lead international nations to permanence on the planet Mars.
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
Exploration is wired into our brains. If we can see the horizon, we want to know what's beyond.
Buzz Aldrin
There's a historical milestone in the fact that our Apollo 11 landing on the moon took place a mere 66 years after the Wright Brothers' first flight.
Buzz Aldrin
Computers allow us to squeeze the most out of everything, whether it's Google looking up things, so I guess that tends to make us a little lazy about reading books and doing things the hard way to understand how those things work.
Buzz Aldrin
The view from space is like having a globe on your desk -- it's a broadening experience.
Buzz Aldrin
