Leave him! I said. I never mean to. I am going with him, if he climbs to the Moon; and if any of these Black Riders try to stop him, they'll have Sam Gamgee to reckon with, I said. They laughed. - J R R Tolkien I am going with him, if he climbs to the Moon. - J R R Tolkien For future exploration, when we have the objective of going to the Moon, it is important to have several possibilities to go there, and within this framework of cooperation to have our own access to orbit around the Moon. - Alain Fournier I think we're going to the moon because it's in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It's by the nature of his deep inner soul... we're required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream. - Neil Armstrong They said you can't go to the moon. They said you can't put cheese inside a pizza crust, but NASA did it. They had to, because the cheese kept floating off in space. - Stephen Colbert If they keep crashing stuff into the moon, th...

Imagine what I could have done in ten years. I could have learned to speak Japanese. I could have played every RPG video game ever created, and if I spoke Japanese I could have played the foreign ones too! Man, I could have built a spaceship in my backyard and flew it to the moon and back, if I wanted. - Kevin James Breaux To show you how much I love you, I'd take you to the moon and back. Or try to fake it in a film studio. - Jarod Kintz Once there was a man and a woman. When they met sparks flew, meteors collided, asteroids turned cartwheels and atoms split. He loved her from here to eternity, she loved him to the moon and back. They were two peas in a pod, heads and tails and noughts and crosses. - Grace Mccleen

We had the sky up there, all speckled with stars, and we used to lay on our backs and look up at them, and discuss about whether they was made, or only just happened - Jim he allowed they was made, but I allowed they happened; I judged it would have took too long to make so many. Jim said the moon could a laid them; well that looked kind of reasonable, so I didn't say nothing against it, because I've seen a frog lay most as many, so of course It could be done. - Mark Twain Oh what a wonderful soul so bright inside you. Got power to heal the sun's broken heart, power to restore the moon's vision too. - Aberjhani Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun. - John Lennon We all shine on...like the moon and the stars and the sun...we all shine on...come on and on and on.. - John Lennon When the moon is shining the cripple becomes hungry for a walk - Chinua Achebe Faerie contains many things besides elves and fays and besides dwarfs, witches, troll...

Shoot for the moon, and if you miss you'll still be among the stars - Cecelia Ahern Shoot for the moon, even if you fail, you'll land among the stars - Cecelia Ahern Don't be afraid to fall in love again. Open your heart and follow where it leads you...and remember, shoot for the moon... PS, I will always love you.. - Cecelia Ahern Shoot for the stars but if you happen to miss shoot for the moon instead. - Neil Armstrong Shoot for the moon and if you miss you will still be among the stars. - Les Brown Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars. - Les Brown Shoot for the moon - if you miss you'll end up in the stars. - Artie Shaw

Who wants that? I'd rather choose to fall in love and be hurt. Sometimes I can't even sleep because I love someone too much. And there's always sadness in our lives. It's that sad feeling that keeps us going. - Usagi/Sailor Moon - Naoko Takeuchi Even someday when we disappear......and new Sailor Senshis are born... Sailor Moon, you will always be Invincible. The most beautiful shining star. - Naoko Takeuchi I am Sailor Moon, champion of justice! On behalf of the moon, I will right wrongs and triumph over evil, and that means you! - sailor moon - Naoko Takeuchi Fighting evil by moonlight, winning love by daylight, never running from a real fight, she is the one named Sailor Moon! - Naoko Takeuchi

This is no honky-tonk parade. 1Q84 is the real world, where a cut draws real blood, where pain is real pain and fear is real fear. The moon in the sky is no paper moon. - Haruki Murakami Ryan finally came to my rescue. He'd thought working together in Paper Moon would help us bond. - Tatum Oneal As Peter Bogdanovich would say of Paper Moon: Ryan's wonderful in it, and he sat there and watched the kid steal the picture. - Tatum Oneal Paper Moon didn't bring me love. - Tatum Oneal

I've got some news... I'm delighted to announce that Simon and I are expecting our first child together. I wanted you to hear the news direct from me, obviously we're over the moon. - Adele Lord of the Rings was something I always wanted to do. I read the book when I was about 25, and I was always hoping if it was ever made into a feature film that I would be involved in some way. And then I finally got it, and I was over the moon. It was fantastic news. - Sean Bean The autumn leaves blew over the moonlit pavement in such a way as to make the girl who was moving there seem fixed to a sliding walk, letting the motion of the wind and the leaves carry her forward. The trees overhead made a great sound of letting down their dry rain. - Ray Bradbury In the great green room, there was a telephone And a red balloon And a picture of a cat jumping over the moon.. - Margaret Wise Brown When I found out I was pregnant, I was over the moon about it, but I was upset I wasn't ma...

But as surely as the moon rises and the sun sets, depravity passes down through the ages, because there is always a gap between who we are and who we should be, and our parents, molested by regret, conceive us under the false hope that we will be better than them, and everything they do, every hug and blow, only makes certain that we never will be. - Chris Adrian And he wrote, When the moon rises tonight think of me and I'll think of you. - L M Montgomery How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that's so deeply a part of your being that you can't even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless. - Paul Bowles Death is always on the way, but the fact that you don't know when it will arrive seems to take away from the finiteness of life. It's that terrible precision t...

America is the only country where a significant proportion of the population believes that professional wrestling is real but the moon landing was faked. - David Letterman I can't think of anything specific growing up that pointed me toward NASA at all. I was interested in the Moon landings just about the same as everyone else of my generation. But I never really thought about being an astronaut or working in space myself. - Laurel Clark Being an American is something I wanted to be for a very long time, probably since I saw the moon landing when I was a child. - Craig Ferguson For me, the most ironic token of [the first human moon landing] is the plaque signed by President Richard M. Nixon that Apollo 11 took to the moon. It reads, 'We came in peace for all Mankind.' As the United States was dropping seven and a half megatons of conventional explosives on small nations in Southeast Asia, we congratulated ourselves on our humanity. We would harm no one on a lifeless roc...

Here, though, there is nothing. Nothing at all. The sky seems empty even when I am looking at the moon and stars. - Edwidge Danticat I'll be looking at the moon, but I'll be seeing you. - Michael Ondaatje

Look at the moon. How strange the moon seems! She is like a woman rising from a tomb. She is like a dead woman. One might fancy she was looking for dead things. - Oscar Wilde Tonight I'm going to shower and then just walk for about four hours and look at the moon. - Rafer Johnson I have spent weeks in the desert, forgetting to look at the moon, he says, as a married man may spend days never looking into the face of his wife. These are not sins of omission but signs of pre-occuopation. - Michael Ondaatje I never really thought about how when I look at the moon it;s the same moon as Shakespeare and Marie Antoinette and George Washington and Cleopatra looked at. - Susan Beth Pfeffer They say when you really love someone, you should be willing to set them free. So that is what I am doing. I will step back and you will move on. I will let you go.... Your happiness means everything to me. I will listen for your voice in the distance. I will look at the moon. I will keep you in my po...

I think if Keith Moon was here today and you asked him to recall most of his early life or most of his life, he wouldn't be able to recall it. - Roger Daltrey We lived the life with Keith Moon. It was all Spinal Tap magnified a thousand times. - Roger Daltrey Terry said he had this new kid and his wife didn't want to live in England. He wanted to tour. He hated being in the studio. Terry liked seeing various bars the world over and getting smashed out of his brain. He was a sort of latent Keith Moon. - Andy Partridge I always tell people that to be the funny person in a Steve Martin movie is like getting a call that Keith Moon wants you to play drums on his record. He should be playing drums on his record. - Jason Schwartzman Keith Moon, God rest his soul, once drove his car through the glass doors of a hotel, driving all the way up to the reception desk, got out and asked for the key to his room. - Pete Townshend

And Fall, with her yeller harvest moon and the hills growin' brown and golden under a sinkin' sun. - Roy Bean On this night of the Harvest Moon. They tossed bones into the "Bone Fire" and asked the yellow moon to shine its protection over them. (Today we call it a "Bonfire") - Nancy B Brewer Every fifteen minutes or so the harvest moon would bleed through the tourniquet of cloud cover that conspired to squeeze every droplet of pictorial sentiment out of the Skagit landscape in order that a more refined Chinese moon might brush the countryside. In the aloof washes of moonlight no form seemed to stir. - Tom Robbins

A strong wind sang sadly as it bent the trees in front of the Hall. A half moon shone through the dark, flying clouds on to the wild and empty moor. - Arthur Conan Doyle Growing up in northern California has had a big influence on my love and respect for the outdoors. When I lived in Oakland, we would think nothing of driving to Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz one day and then driving to the foothills of the Sierras the next day. - Tom Hanks

This is the kind of detail that is forbidden in literature; in a book, no one would dare combine a full moon with Frank Sinatra. The problem with fiction is that it must seem credible, while reality seldom is. - Isabel Allende Tell me what you feel in your room when the full moon is shining in upon you and your lamp is dying out, and I will tell you how old you are, and I shall know if you are happy. - Henri Frederic Amiel Some people will tell you werewolves can only shapechange under a full moon, but people also say there's no such things as ghosts. - Patricia Briggs They camped that night under a full moon and a sky crowded with stars that made Froi forget that there was an old man waiting to die and remember that there was a kingdom dying to live. - Melina Marchetta For most people, we often marvel at the beauty of a sunrise or the magnificence of a full moon, but it is impossible to fathom the magnitude of the universe that surrounds us. - Richard H Baker Perhaps the Hou...

Here is something you have to understand about stories: They point you in the right direction but they can't take you all the way there. Stories are crescent moons; they glimmer in the night sky, but they are most exquisite in their incomplete state. Because people crave the beauty of not-knowing, the excitement of suggestion, and the sweet tragedy of mystery. - Diana Abu Jaber The reappearance of the crescent moon after the new moon; the return of the Sun after a total eclipse, the rising of the Sun in the morning after its troublesome absence at night were noted by people around the world; these phenomena spoke to our ancestors of the possibility of surviving death. Up there in the skies was also a metaphor of immortality. - Carl Sagan She pushed Adam firmly back, once and for all, and turned to face the demon, the crescent moon of the scythe's blade circling over her head as a vane signals a change in the weather. The wind was finally blowing her way. - Erin Kellison I w...
