"I step into one of the most amazing views I’ve ever seen. Don’t get me wrong. I’ve witnessed lots of incredible things. My uncomfortably long and monotonous outer space travels do get me into visual range of some of the most vivid astronomical wonders in the Solar System: Saturn’s rings, the Great Red Spot on Jupiter, any number of comets shedding their icy mass in huge glowing tails. But nothing compares to seeing Planet Earth from space."

"I’d just like us to consider all the possibilities. Especially the ones that involve me being an assassination target."
"She squints at me. “Since when do you care about regulations?” “Since they started helping me win arguments like this.”"
"This is not some random misfortune we’re fighting. This is evil. And evil is predictable."
