Запись в дневнике от 5 мая 1911 года. Источник: Скотт Р. Экспедиция к Южному полюсу. 1910—1912 гг. Прощальные письма / Пер. с англ. В. А. Островского, Под ред. М. Г. Деева. — Москва: Дрофа. — ISBN 978-5-358-0547
self-assertion is a mask which covers many a weakness. As a rule we have neither the time nor the desire to look beneath it, and so it is that commonly we accept people on their own valuation. Here the outward show is nothing, it is the inward purpose that counts. So the gods dwindle and the humble supplant them. Pretence is useless.
… ed interviene di questa come dicono i medici dell’etica, che nel principio è facile a curare, e difficile a cognoscere, ma nel corso del tempo, non l’avendo nel principio cognosciuta nè medicata, diventa facile a cognoscere e difficile a curare. Così interviene nelle cose dello Stato, perchè cognoscendo discosto, il che non è dato se non ad un prudente, i mali che nascono in quello, si guariscono presto; ma quando, per non gli aver cognosciuti, si lasciano crescere in modo che ognuno li cognosce, non vi è più rimedio.
эссе «Об извращении истины»
I think it was a great medieval philosopher who said that all evil comes from enjoying what we ought to use and using what we ought to enjoy. A great many modern philosophers never do anything else. Thus they will sacrifice what they admit to be happiness to what they claim to be progress; though it could have no rational meaning except progress to greater happiness.

The exciting part for me, as a pilot, was the landing on the moon. That was the time that we had achieved the national goal of putting Americans on the moon. The landing approach was, by far, the most difficult and challenging part of the flight. Walking on the lunar surface was very interesting, but it was something we looked on as reasonably safe and predictable. So the feeling of elation accompanied the landing rather than the walking.
