Scott Carpenter Quotes
This planet is not terra firma. It is a delicate flower and it must be cared for. It's lonely. It's small. It's isolated, and there is no resupply. And we are mistreating it.

It should be to, number two, the family of man, and number one, the planet at large. This is our home, and this is all we've got.
