SPACEX

When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor.

Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough.

I would like to die on Mars. Just not on impact.

You want to wake up in the morning and think the future is going to be great. That's what being a spacefaring civilization is all about.

There's a silly notion that failure's not an option at NASA. Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough.

I'd rather be optimistic and wrong than pessimistic and right.
