We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As we leave the Moon at Taurus-Littrow, we leave as we came, and God willing, as we shall return, with peace and hope for all mankind.
One approaches the journey's end. But the end is a goal, not a catastrophe.
To cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal is our only legitimate hope of survival.
We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.
Fear not that thy life shall come to an end, but rather that it shall never have a beginning.
Explorers have to be ready to die lost.
If we are always arriving and departing, it is also true that we are eternally anchored. One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things.
We leave as we came and, god willing, as we shall return, with peace, and hope for all mankind.
Unless one says goodbye to what one loves, and unless one travels to completely new territories, one can expect merely a long wearing away of oneself and an eventual extinction.
Keeping our eyes on journey's end is what we need - the place where we see at last the world that is greater than the world, the new creation that cannot be contained in present thought or social order or piety.
