GREAT AVIATION QUOTES
Isaac Asimov

There are 2 quotes matching Isaac Asimov in the collection:

I do not use airplanes. They strike me as unsporting. You can have an automobile accident — and survive. You can be on a sinking ship — and survive. You can be in an earthquake, fire, volcanic eruption, tornado, what you will — and survive. But if your plane crashes, you do not survive. And I say the heck with it.

Isaac Asimov

Quoted in The Traveling Curmudgeon, 2003.

All of a sudden, space isn’t friendly. All of a sudden, it's a place where people can die… . Many more people are going to die. But we can't explore space if the requirement is that there be no casualties; we can't do anything if the requirement is that there be no casualties.

Isaac Asimov

Regards the Challenger investigation, on CBS television show 48 Hours, 21 April 1988.
