  William Shakespeare

en An improper mind is a perpetual feast
  Logan Pearsall Smith

en THE Divine is a wine that would intoxicate you. The nectar that the Name of the Lord is saturated in produces it. Taste it and you forget everything else; you are transformed.

en 'Tis Apollo comes leading / His choir, the Nine. / The leader is fairest, / But all are divine.

There was no incentive to make it economical or commercially feasible.

en The Apollo program was about flags and footprints, and it was effective in helping to win the Cold War with the Soviet Union. The Apollo leadership also managed to tack on some science activities, but they were definitely afterthoughts. But those times have passed, and we must move beyond the Apollo concept to embrace a more engaging and sustained approach. I hope this program is successful in doing this. I will be properly ecstatic if program officials are successful in doing so.
