Space Quotes

Everyone is on the internet but they're not all talking with each other. There are groups upon groups out there, but they don't talk to one another. So while the internet brings everyone into a shared space, it does not...

Quotes by David Lynch

Music deals with time and timing. It's so magical, but when you get into it, every little sound and every little space between the sounds, it's critical, so critical. And if it's not there, it not only feels wrong, but...

Quotes by David Lynch

Although as a boy I had dreamed about going into space, I had completely forgotten about that until one day I received a call from an astronaut, who suggested that I should join the program.

Quotes by David M. Brown

Quotes by David Mackay

Not long after I got my test pilot qualification, I realised there was no manned space flight programme in the U.K., and there was unlikely to be one.

Quotes by David Mackay

I cannot wait to get up there and experience space travel for the first time. It will be a dream come true.

Quotes by David Mackay

It's very sad that there's going to be a hiatus in manned space flight from the U.S. The Shuttle was a fantastic, hugely complex vehicle. It was inevitable it would come to an end, but this is the opportunity for...

Quotes by David Mackay

Quotes by David Mackay

Quotes by David Mackay

I have watched SS2 evolve over the years into an incredible vehicle that is going to open up space to more people than ever before.

Quotes by David Mackay

I watched the moon landing as a boy, and I thought that was the most exciting thing ever, going into space, orbiting Earth and exploring other planets. That looked fantastic.

Quotes by David Mackay

I thought any chance I had of space travel would be military or government-controlled.

Quotes by David Mackay

For Virgin Galactic's customers, it is transportation to the most amazing experience of their lives. I very much look forward to sending some Scots into space.

Quotes by David Mackay

It doesn't matter the kind of music, it doesn't matter whether it's a cowboy hat or a yarmulke. I don't care if it's outer space or pop, the spirit is the same.

Quotes by David Lee Roth

Harlem was a development, a developer's dream and a place where residents had more space and more amenities than ever before. The subway reached 145th street about 1904, and it seemed that Harlem's destiny was to become largely a preserve...

Quotes by David Levering Lewis

Quotes by David Lichtenstein

Quotes by David Knopfler
