For every winner, there's a loser. And that person didn't really need to lose. They just didn't understand the game plan.

More quotes by Buzz Aldrin
Does it make sense for the U.S. to expend hundreds of billions of dollars to mount a new Apollo-style program to return to the moon? Or have we blazed that trail? Shouldn't we help other nations achieve this goal with their own resources but with our help?
Buzz Aldrin
It's not easy to get human beings into orbit. So far only three nations have been able to do that, with all the resources that they put together. And I'm just a little skeptical that that's going to be done by the private sector without making use of what has been done by the government.
Buzz Aldrin
Absolutely the United States should lead in space, for the survival of the United States. It's inspiring for the next generation. If we lose leadership, then we'll be using Chinese capability to inspire Americans.
Buzz Aldrin
I failed music when I was a teenager.
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
America can take man to the moon, and America can take men to Mars - and beyond.
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
The best way to study Mars is with two hands, eyes and ears of a geologist, first at a moon orbiting Mars... and then on the surface.
Buzz Aldrin
Program Alarm, it's a 1202.
Buzz Aldrin
The view from space is like having a globe on your desk -- it's a broadening experience.
Buzz Aldrin
Instead of planning the retirement of the Space Shuttle program, America should be preparing the shuttles for their next step in space: evolving, not shutting them down and laying off thousands of people.
Buzz Aldrin
There are a lot of people that get interested in something, and they hear about it, and they read about it, and then they watch it happen, and that's why I had quite an interest in the lottery because you'd interest a lot of people, and then just a few would win a chance to do something.
Buzz Aldrin
There is very little doubt, in my mind, that what the next monumental achievement of humanity will be the first landing by an Earthling, a human being, on the planet Mars.
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
I want people to go into space, to orbit around the world a few times, even to stay there for 24 hours and then come back to where they took off. And I also want people with a low income to be able to do that, not only rich people.
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.
Buzz Aldrin
Anything we can do in the near future that begins to stimulate the interest of people - seeing somebody down the street have an opportunity to go into space - buoys up the whole neighborhood.
Buzz Aldrin
The feeling of reduced gravity and the limitations of the space suit resulted in a slow-motion movement. Perhaps not too far from a trampoline, but without the springiness and instability.
Buzz Aldrin
I don't think we're going to build a 50-person spacecraft or a 100-person spacecraft.
