Famous quotes containing the words space and/or programs:

    Why not a space flower? Why do we always expect metal ships?
    W.D. Richter (b. 1945)

    Government ... thought [it] could transform the country through massive national programs, but often the programs did not work. Too often they only made things worse. In our rush to accomplish great deeds quickly, we trampled on sound principles of restraint and endangered the rights of individuals.
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
