I am convinced that the modular structure of the Mir will be the main trend in manned orbital stations development in the next century.

I am very resourceful, as any woman would be.

I would enjoy flying to Mars. This was the dream of the first cosmonauts. I wish I could realize it! I am ready to fly without coming back.

I am deeply grieved by the loss of the crew of Columbia. I express my sincere condolences to the families and friends of the astronauts. I believe that their names will remain as the bright sparkling stars in the universe and will light the way for those who will follow them on the difficult roads of space exploration.

There is an afterlife. I am convinced of this.

I am a Communist, a convinced Communist! For some that may be a fantasy. But to me it is my main goal.
