More quotes by Neil Armstrong

Neil Armstrong

Neil Armstrong
Hey, we missed the whole thing.
Neil Armstrong

Neil Armstrong

Neil Armstrong

Neil Armstrong
Pilots take no special joy in walking: pilots like flying.
Neil Armstrong
History will remember the twentieth century for two technological developments: atomic energy and space flight.
Neil Armstrong
We had hundreds of thousands of people all dedicated to doing the perfect job, and I think they did about as well as anyone could ever have expected.
Neil Armstrong
Damn I really did it. I blew the first words on the moon, didn't I?
Neil Armstrong
I was elated, ecstatic and extremely surprised that we were successful.
Neil Armstrong
It's a great thing for a man to walk on the moon. But it's a greater thing for God to walk on the earth.
Neil Armstrong
It's a strange, eerie sensation to fly a lunar landing trajectory not difficult, but somewhat complex and unforgiving.
Neil Armstrong
A picture does a great job, but it's not nearly like being there.
Neil Armstrong
