Yuri Gagarin

It was a very interesting flight. I enjoyed every minute of it.

I could distinguish the contours of the continents, even the rivers and lakes.

The main thing is that we have done it.

When I was preparing for the flight, I had a very strange dream. I was flying in a small plane, and suddenly it turned into a rocket.

I can assure you that the Earth is round.

The feeling of pride for my country, for my people, was overwhelming.

It was a great honor to be the first.

I hope that my flight will help people to understand that we are all on one planet, and we should live in peace.

The whole world is looking at us. We must not disappoint them.

I am full of joy and happiness. It's a great feeling to be in space.

The flight was normal. The equipment worked flawlessly.

I was singing a song during the flight. 'The Motherland Hears, The Motherland Knows.'

I have always dreamed of this, since I was a child.

It was a fantastic journey. I can still hardly believe it.

I saw no signs of extraterrestrial life.

I will continue to serve my country and people with all my strength and knowledge.

To be a cosmonaut, you must be a strong person, both physically and morally.

The future of humanity is in space.

Poyekhali! (Let's go!)

I could have gone on flying through space forever.
