Edgar D. Mitchell Quotes
Instead Of An Intellectual Search, There Was Suddenly A Very Deep Gut Feeling That Something Was Different. It Occurred When Looking At Earth And Seeing This Blue-and-white Planet Floating There, And Knowing It Was Orbiting The Sun, Seeing That Sun, Seeing It Set In The Background Of The Very Deep Black And Velvety Cosmos, Seeing - Rather, Knowing For Sure - That There Was A Purposefullness Of Flow, Of Energy, Of Time, Of Space In The Cosmos - That It Was Beyond Man's Rational Ability To Understand, That Suddenly There Was A Nonrational Way Of Understanding That Had Been Beyond My Previous Experience.
There Seems To Be More To The Universe Than Random, Chaotic, Purposeless Movement Of A Collection Of Molecular Particles.
On The Return Trip Home, Gazing Through 240,000 Miles Of Space Toward The Stars And The Planet From Which I Had Come, I Suddenly Experienced The Universe As Intelligent, Loving, Harmonious.
