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.

More quotes by Buzz Aldrin
I've been to the Titanic in a yellow submarine and the North Pole in a Russian nuclear ice breaker.
Buzz Aldrin
You can tell I'm not too bashful about some of my feelings.
Buzz Aldrin
Knowledge of the past and an optimistic view of the present give you great opportunities.
Buzz Aldrin
We need the next generation to be motivated and to push technological boundaries, to seek out new innovations.
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
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
Globalisation means many other countries are asserting themselves and trying to take over leadership. Please don't ask Americans to let others assume the leadership of human exploration. We can do wonderful science on the Moon, and wonderful commercial things. Then we can pack up and move on to Mars.
Buzz Aldrin
I'm sure that there are places in the deserts in Australia that could be similar to where we might want to go on Mars.
Buzz Aldrin
I'm not in favor of just taking short-term isolated situations and depleting our resources to keep our climate just the way it is today.
Buzz Aldrin
I remember it was hard to believe that I was taking a step onto the lunar surface.
Buzz Aldrin
The way I see it, commercial interests should manage a lunar base while NASA gets on with the really important task of flying to Mars.
Buzz Aldrin
The final frontier may be human relationships, one person to another.
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.
Buzz Aldrin
I was given permission to serve myself Communion, with wine and a wafer, on the surface on the Moon. But I was advised not to say anything about it at the time. Someone had strongly objected to the Apollo 8 crew reading from the Bible. We didn't want to get into any further trouble with the religious critics.
Buzz Aldrin
My expertise is the space program and what it should be in the future based on my experience of looking at the transitions that we've made between pre-Sputnik days and getting to the moon.
Buzz Aldrin
I was lucky enough to have been born on this planet earth, in this admirable country of the United States of America.
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
Mars is there, waiting to be reached.
Buzz Aldrin
NASA needs to focus on the things that are really important and that we do not know how to do. The agency is a pioneering force, and that is where its competitive advantage lies.
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
