  4. Important Quotations- “Our rockets will change us in ways we could not have predicted. You, for instance, have actually learned an orderly way to think. When I first met you, I wouldn’t have ever seen that as a possibility.”-Quentin (page 209) “Ike Bykovski spoke then of the way a man can change and how it is possible to forgive if not perhaps to forget. “This is not your sin Sonny” He said. “If your asking for my permission to admire Dr. Von Braun for what he has become you don’t need it.” (page 212)
