You're going very fast when you're on orbit, going around the world once every hour and a half.

Perhaps one day I will go into space.

I recognize my limits but when I look around I realise I am not living exactly in a world of giants.

I am incapable of conceiving infinity, and yet I do not accept finity.

We go up just into space - space is most commonly accepted to be 100 kilometres above the earth's surface, and we go up just beyond that to about 350,000 ft.

I cannot help it - in spite of myself, infinity torments me.

Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say 'infinitely' when you mean 'very'; otherwise you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite.

The further you go in life, the more you realize what you're going to leave this Earth.

I am not a person who reaches for the moon as long as I have the stars.

Would I like to go into space? No. Maybe I'd do it when I'm old and have done everything else on this planet.
