Our mission on Apollo 14 was to be the first to do science on the moon, so we had to be careful about getting everything in during the allotted time.

We are not alone in the universe. They have been coming here for a long time.

On the return trip home, gazing through 240,000 miles of space toward the stars and the planet from which I had come, I suddenly experienced the universe as intelligent, loving, harmonious.

There are no unnatural or supernatural phenomenon, only very large gaps in our knowledge of what is natural... we should strive to fill those gaps of ignorance.

We went to the Moon as technicians; we returned as humanitarians.

I love being by the ocean. It stills the voices in my head.

A politician complaining about the media is like a sailor complaining about the sea.
