David Weber Quotes

I want manned spaceflight, not just back to the Moon, but beyond that. And I want my daughters and my son to have their own July 20, 1969, to remember. Apollo 11 didn’t give us wings; it only showed us how far the wings we had would take us Picture Quote #1

It hadn’t really percolated through my brain that I was going to see real, live TV from the surface of the Moon, and boy, oh, boy, had that Saturn V launch been exciting! And then, there it was - late at night, sitting up, watching, and there was Neil Armstrong actually standing on the surface of the Moon Picture Quote #1

Giving orders you know won’t be obeyed is one of the best ways I know to destroy your own authority Picture Quote #1

Giving orders you know won’t be obeyed is one of the best ways I know to destroy your own authority Picture Quote #1

All men begin as good men. What they are taught as children, what is expected of them as young men, is either the armor about that goodness or the flaw that allows evil in Picture Quote #1
