Quote
To consider the rights of others before I exercise my own, to see my fellowman as my opportunity not my liability, and to understand that a life shaped by Biblical values is a life of deep endurance and raw power...to embrace all of this is to be the very thing that a wounded world is begging for.

Quote
We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained, and new rights to be won, and they must be won and used for the progress of all people. For space science, like nuclear science and technology, has no conscience of its own. Whether it will become a force for good or ill depends on man, and only if the United States occupies a position of preeminence can we help decide whether this new ocean will be a sea of peace or a new terrifying theater of war.
