I feel like there's too many paintings left unpainted that I just don't want to take the time away..

The moon is very rugged..

I have the nicest life in the world..

But I'm the only one who can paint the moon, because I'm the only one who knows whether that's right or not..

I found I have to stay painting..

History has spurts and then is steady, and then maybe even backing up a step, and then forward again..

It seems farther away now because there are no rockets getting there. Nobody is going..

Frequently on the lunar surface I said to myself, 'This is the Moon, that is the Earth. I'm really here, I'm really here!'.

We knew it was going to be difficult to get to the moon. We didn't know how difficult..

I find color schemes that I just like and that just feel right..

I think everything depends on money..

One of the great things about the universe is that it's fair..

But I found that being an artist and doing accurate work is very difficult..

It's hard not to be excited when you're going to find a way to land on the moon..

Test pilots have a litmus test for evaluating problems. When something goes wrong, they ask, "Is this thing still flying?" If the answer is yes, then….

As the centuries unfold, millions of artists will live on the moon and paint the moon and Mars as we go out into the universe..

Eventually there are going to be cities in space..

I can remember walking on the moon..

I feel like everyone who goes to The University of Texas is blessed and lucky to be there because they're getting a chance to be as good as they can ….
