Quotes
“One of the things that I believe in is that if a greater slice
of humanity can experience spaceflight, it will translate to
untold benefits and changes on Earth. What if every world leader
saw Earth from space? It might be a more gentle, kind planet.”[8]

"After countless projects, I can say this: engineering persistence
trumps personal, cultural, or gender factors. In modern global
human aerospace, it really doesn’t matter what you look like.
Or where your parents lived. Or even what native language you
grew up with. What does matter is your engineering skill, common
sense, courtesy, persistence, and dedication to the shared mission."[9]
