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.

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
As time goes by, I'm increasingly impressed by how very special and timely it was that we got the degree of national commitment needed to put people on the Moon. For the first time, this nation was united in trying to develop an interplanetary capability. We've been trying to repeat that situation ever since.
Buzz Aldrin

Buzz Aldrin
I still say, 'Shoot for the moon you might get there.'
Buzz Aldrin
You can tell I'm not too bashful about some of my feelings.
Buzz Aldrin
The final frontier may be human relationships, one person to another.
Buzz Aldrin
My own American Dream was to serve my country as best I could and make a difference in America - and in the world.
Buzz Aldrin
As someone who flew two space capsules and twice landed in the ocean, I can attest from personal experience how much logistics work is needed to get you home.
