Notable quotes, excerpts, and profound lines.
The words on NASA's plaque that was left on the moon by the Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin (Michael Collins stayed aboard the Columbia in lunar orbit): "Here men from the planet Earth first set foot on the moon. July 1969 A.D. We came in peace for all mankind."

Three and a half years later, Gene Cerman, the last human so far to leave the moon bid farewell with these words: "We leave as we came and, God willing, as we shall return, with peace, and hope for all mankind."
