   Famous Sayings About UFOs   
      
   Dr. Herman Oberth, the father of modern rocketry, is quoted as   
   saying in 1954, "UFOs are  conceived and directed by intelligent   
   beings of a very high order, and they are propelled by distorting   
   the gravitational field, converting gravity into useable energy.   
   There is no doubt in my mind that these objects are interplanetary   
   craft of some sort.  I and my colleagues are confident that they   
   do not originate in our solar system, but we feel that they may   
   use Mars of some other body as sort of a way station.  They probably   
   do not originate in our solar system, perhaps not even in our   
   galaxy."   
   Years later he was  quoted as saying, "We cannot take the credit   
   for our record advancement in certain scientific fields alone.   
   We have been helped."  When asked  by whom, he replied,   
   "The people of other worlds."  [More about this quote at the bottom.]   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   Senator Barry Goldwater, a retired Air Force Reserve Brigadier   
   General and pilot with many decades of flying experience, was   
   quoted as saying, "I certainly believe in aliens in space.  They   
   may not look like us, but I have very strong feelings that they   
   have advanced beyond our mental capabilities."  He said he was   
   refused permission to check the Air Force files on UFOs and added,   
   "I think some highly secret government UFO investigations are going   
   on that we don't know about--and probably never will unless the Air   
   Force discloses them."  He said that he put faith in the reports of   
   the Air Force, Navy, and commercial pilots who reported instances   
   where a UFO would fly near them--right off their plane's wing--and   
   then just zoom away at incredible speeds.  "I remember the case in   
   Georgia in the 1950's of a National Guard plane going after a UFO and   
   never returning.  And I recall the case in Franklin, Kentucky, when   
   four military planes investigated a UFO.  One of them exploded in   
   midair and no one knows why."   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   Dr. Werhner Von Braun (Nazi-American rocket engineer), reflecting on   
   the deflection of the US June 2  rocket from orbit in 1959, stated   
   "We   
   find ourselves faced by powers which are far stronger than we had   
   hitherto assumed, and whose base is at present unknown to us.  More   
   I cannot say at present.  We are now engaged in entering into closer   
   contact with those powers, and in six or nine months time it may be   
   possible to speak with some precision on the matter."   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   Gen. Douglas MacArthur, in a speech given to the United States   
   Military Academy on May 12, 1962 stated, "You now face a new   
   world, a world of change.  We speak in strange terms, of harnessing   
   the cosmic energy, of ultimate conflict between a united human   
   race and the sinister forces of some other planetary galaxy."   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   "I believe that these extraterrestrial vehicles and their crews   
   are visiting this planet from other planets which obviously are a   
   little more technically advanced than we are here on Earth.   I feel   
   that we need to have a top level, coordinated program to   
   scientifically collect and analyze data from all over the earth   
   concerning any type of encounter, and to determine how best to   
   interface with these visitors in a friendly fashion.  We may first   
   have to show them that we have learned to resolve our problems by   
   peaceful means, rather than warfare, before we are accepted as   
   fully qualified universal team members.  This acceptance would   
   have tremendous possibilities of advancing our world in all areas.   
   Certainly then it would seem that the UN has a vested interest in   
   handling this subject properly and expeditiously.   
      
   For many years I have lived with a secret, in a secrecy imposed   
   on all specialists and astronauts. I can now reveal that every day,   
   in the USA, our radar instruments capture objects of form and   
   composition unknown to us. And there are thousands of witness   
   reports and a quantity of documents to prove this, but nobody   
   wants to make them public.   
      
   Why? Because the authorities are afraid that people may think   
   of some kind of horrible invaders. So the password still is: We   
   have to avoid panic by all means."   In another interview he said   
   "As far as I am concerned, there have been too many unexplained   
   examples of UFO sightings around this Earth for us to rule out   
   the possibilities that some form of life exists out there beyond our   
   own world."   
      
   Colonel L. Gordon Cooper, Mercury 9, Gemini-5 Astronaut   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   We all know that UFOs are real. All we need to ask is where do   
   they come from."   
   Captain Edgar D. Mitchell, Apollo 14 Astronaut, 1971   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   The matter is the most highly classified subject in the United   
   States Government, rating higher even than the H-bomb. Flying   
   saucers exist. Their modus operandi is unknown but concentrated   
   effort is being made by a small group headed by Dr. Vannevar Bush."   
   Wilbert Smith, in a formerly classified Canadian government   
   memorandum dated November 21, 1950.   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   "The time will have to come when we realize that we're not the   
   center of the universe. The galaxy may be teeming with life.   
   There may be millions of civilizations."   
   Richard Terrile, Astronomer, Jet Propulsion Laboratory   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   Dick D'Amato, National and International Security Specialist for   
   Senator Robert Byrd and a member of the National Security Council,   
   stated in 1991 that an incredibly powerful "black arm" of the   
   government has been keeping UFO information secret and has   
   also been illegally spending enormous sums of money in this operation.   
   ===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++===+++=   
   Dr. Vladimir Azhazha:   
   "Neil Armstrong relayed the message to Mission Control that two   
   large, mysterious objects were watching them after having   
   landed near the moon module. But this message was never heard by   
   the public -- because NASA censored it."  According to a Dr.   
   Aleksandr   
   Kasantsev, Buzz Aldrin took color movie film of the UFOs from   
   inside the module, and continued filming them after he and
