“But if seeing 16 sunrises a day and all of Earth’s variety steadily on display for five months had taught me anything, it was that there are always more challenges and opportunities out there than time to experience them.”

“An astronaut who doesn’t sweat the small stuff is a dead astronaut.”

Quotes On Attitude Autobiography Determination Modern Classic Space

“A lot of people talk about expecting the best but preparing for the worst, but I think that’s a seductively misleading concept. There’s never just one ‘worst.’ Almost always there’s a whole spectrum of bad possibilities. The only thing that would really qualify as *the* worst would be not having a plan for how to cope.”

“This is the point at which Tom Rivellini reminded me of the old saying, ‘The coward dies a thousand deaths.’ There’s plenty of time to confront ‘the worst’ if it comes to that, so there’s no point rushing ahead to assume that you’ve reached it. Today I tell my teams, ‘Just keep working, and if death comes to visit us, let us be surprised.’ Where there is will and ingenuity, there has always been a way.”

“Anybody can come up with a wild idea. It’s this 99 percent perspiration—implementation—that’s in some sense the true test.”

“Nothing puts more weight into your opinion than that it is well considered, well articulated, and coming from a high performer. If you want people to take you seriously, better put your head down and be useful to them.”

“With each of these steps, I committed more, to life, to the present—to risking more. I would bring myself more fully to my life, both professional and personal. My work was changing me, and I in turn would try to change it.”
