It is difficult to express in words the feelings of happiness and pride which fill me.
Gherman Titov
It's a pity I flew only once. A space flight is like a drug - once you experience it, you can't think of anything else.
I wasn't a very convenient person for the leadership. I had my own opinion about things and knew how to insist on this.
I am Eagle! I am Eagle!
We were young, we were pilots, and we were hungry to test the new technology of 'space machines.' And we all wanted to be first.
We thought our careers as cosmonauts - we were young then - would end with a flight to Mars. But, you see, life has made some course corrections.
