Space Shuttle Mission

Famous quotes containing the words space, shuttle and/or mission:

    “At first thy little being came:
    If nothing once, you nothing lose,
    For when you die you are the same;
    The space between, is but an hour,
    The frail duration of a flower.”
    —Philip Freneau (1752–1832)

    “And the shuttle never falters, but to draw an encouraging conclusion
    From this would be considerable, too odd. Why not just
    Breathe in with the courage of each day, recognizing yourself as one
    Who must with difficulty get down from high places?”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “The mission of the United States is one of benevolent assimilation.”
    —William McKinley (1843–1901)
