If you can’t be good, be colorful.

Time flies when you're having fun, and I've been having fun for the last thirty years. Reflecting on the upcoming 30th anniversary of Apollo 11.

The flight was extremely normal . . . for the first 36 seconds then after that got very interesting.

I think we need to do a little more all-weather testing.

I think the Space Shuttle is worth one billion dollars a launch. I think that it is worth two billion dollars for what it does. I think the Shuttle is worth it for the work it does.

I fully expect that NASA will send me back to the moon as they treated Sen. Glenn, and if they don't do otherwise, why, then I'll have to do it myself.

My position as a follower of God is not to show you how close I am to God—my job is to show you how close you are to God […]. (Simon)

Peace of mind is the power in the moment.

One of the greatest things in human life is the ability to make plans. Even if they never come true-the joy of anticipating is irrevocably yours. That way one can live many more than just one life.

They say you should treat your body like a temple. I treat mine like a fast-moving dumpster.

I'm a big fan of Courtney Love. I love Hole and I love her acting and I love her attitude. I just hope I never meet her in a dark alley.

That idea of escapism... these words could sum up my life.

Writing every song is a little journey. The first note has to lift you.

The world looks like it was designed. Of course, the Sun also looks like it goes around the Earth. It is only thru science that we know that both of these perceptions are wrong.

I'm not a comedian. I don't make things funny if they're not funny. I don't invent funny stuff.

I did take composition lessons when I was in high school, so I wrote piano pieces. I wrote some chamber music. I don't think any of that was particularly interesting.

I’d love to be faster. Physically I’m limited, but I’ve survived by using my head.
