I like looking at a future where we're expanding our creativity and brightening our lives. I believe that eventually we'll get to a point where we'll be able to live indefinitely through our technology.

I'm really hopeful about the future of space exploration and human spaceflight. Civilization as we know it has been defined by exploration. You know, we need to go off and find out what's around the next corner and what's just beyond what we already know. It's part of our being; it's part of our moral fiber to go off and explore.

I look forward to a great future for America - a future in which our country will match its military strength with our moral restraint, its wealth with our wisdom, its power with our purpose.

I hope I'll be remembered for my scientific contribution to understanding life and human life.

The hope for our nation and our world lies within our ability to innovate and move forward technologically.

My hope is that we continue to nurture the places that we love, but that we also look outside our immediate worlds.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

I hope to have more time to think, to look at the sky, dealing with less crisis management, to learn another language, to travel.

We stand at the birth of a new millennium, ready to unlock the mysteries of space, to free the Earth from the miseries of disease, and to harness the energies, industries and technologies of tomorrow. A new national pride will stir our souls, lift our sights, and heal our divisions.
