The Eagle has landed.

Research is creating new knowledge.

I believe that every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

Geologists have a saying - rocks remember.

Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon. July 1969 AD. We came in peace for all mankind.

This is one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.

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.

Well, I think we tried very hard not to be overconfident, because when you get overconfident, that's when something snaps up and bites you.

I was elated, ecstatic and extremely surprised that we were successful.

I fully expected that, by the end of the century, we would have achieved substantially more than we actually did.

The one thing I regret was that my work required an enormous amount of my time, and a lot of travel.

Yeah, I wasn't chosen to be first. I was just chosen to command that flight. Circumstance put me in that particular role. That wasn't planned by anyone.

The important achievement of Apollo was demonstrating that humanity is not forever chained to this planet and our visions go rather further than that and our opportunities are unlimited.

As a boy, because I was born and raised in Ohio, about 60 miles north of Dayton, the legends of the Wrights have been in my memories as long as I can remember.

I believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don't intend to waste any of mine.

Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man's desire to understand.

If that's there, I believe that technology will probably step up to their part of it.

Houston, Tranquillity Base here. The Eagle has landed.

Pilots take no special joy in walking. Pilots like flying.

In much of society, research means to investigate something you do not know or understand.

Gliders, sail planes, they're wonderful flying machines. It's the closest you can come to being a bird.

It's a brilliant surface in that sunlight. The horizon seems quite close to you because the curvature is so much more pronounced than here on earth. It's an interesting place to be. I recommend it.

I think we're going to the moon because it's in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It's by the nature of his deep inner soul... we're required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream.

Science has not yet mastered prophecy. We predict too much for the next year and yet far too little for the next 10.

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.

I guess we all like to be recognized not for one piece of fireworks, but for the ledger of our daily work.

The Eagle has landed.

I put up my thumb and it blotted out the planet Earth.

I am, and ever will be, a white socks, pocket protector, nerdy engineer.

People love conspiracy theories.

That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.

In flying, the probability of survival is inversely proportional to the angle of arrival.

Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon July 1969, A.D. We came in peace for all mankind.

Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of mans desire to understand.

Geologists have a saying rocks remember.

NASA has been one of the most successful public investments in motivating students to do well and achieve all they can achieve. It's sad that we are turning the programme in a direction where it will reduce the amount of motivation and stimulation it provides to young people.

There can be no great accomplishment without risk.

The view of the moon that we've been having recently is really spectacular. It fills about three-quarters of the hatch window, and of course we can see the entire circumference even though part of it is in complete shadow and part of it is in earthshine. It's a view worth the price of the trip.

Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man’s desire to understand.

Advertising has done more to cause the social unrest of the 20th century than any other single factor.

Memories may fade as the years go by but they won't age a day.

I wasn't a fan of horror movies before 'Saw,' but through these films, I have definitely become a big fan and really come to respect and appreciate the genre and the fans that support it.

You carry so much love in your heart. Give some to yourself.

I despise stereotypes. A gay man can be a macho athlete, or he can be an interior designer or any career in between.

It's surreal working with people you admire. I don't think it ever goes away, no matter how human people are; there's always that moment of 'Oh wow, that's still George Clooney!' But I find that the most talented people tend to be the nicest.

If we say it long enough eventually we're going to reap a harvest. We're going to get exactly what we're saying.

We found that the most exciting environments, that treated people very well, are also tough as nails. There is no bureaucratic mumbo-jumbo... excellent companies provide two things simultaneously: tough environments and very supportive environments.

The act of seeing any film generally is you knowing more than the characters, even if it's the classic Hitchcock shot of two people talking and a bomb being under the table. Part of the pleasure of it is seeing where people go wrong, and the irony of situations.

If only one could tell true love from false love as one can tell mushrooms from toadstools.
