This has been far more than three men on a mission to the Moon; more still than the efforts of a government and industry team; more, even, than the efforts of one nation. We feel this stands as a symbol of the insatiable curiosity of all mankind to explore the unknown.
I always do something that I've never done before.
Whatever I know how to do, I've already done. Therefore I must always do what I do not know how to do.
Exploring the unknown requires tolerating uncertainty.
We don't ever want to shut down and say, I'm afraid to go that far down the road because there's going to be pain. There'll be beauty, too, and if you stop here, you stop all that.
The road was new to me, as roads always are, going back.
I don't agree with the sentiment 'write what you know.'... I think one should write what one doesn't know. The world is bigger and wider and more complex than our small subjective selves. One should prod, goad the imagination.
We feel that this stands as a symbol of the insatiable curiosity of all mankind to explore the unknown.
I'm not great at trying new things.
