“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. Clearly, the highest loyalty we should have is not to our on country or our own religion or our home town or even to ourselves. 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.”
Scott Carpenter

“If all you do is sit and read, all you get is smart and soft.”
Scott Carpenter

“One might say that ambiguity is the diet of literary studies.”
Scott Carpenter
