However, my problems with my memory are further complicated by the fact that while I don't have any recollection of things I have actually done, I have very vivid recollections of loads of things that I haven't done.

I exist as an annexe of the BBC. I'm down the road a bit from the main building, in a little hut.

Yuri Gagarin, the first man in space, may have had his charms, but he really couldn't be considered hip.

It always seemed to be a constant that my parents were political.

I watched 'Apollo 13,' and it, like, absolutely freaked me out. I was terrified. I didn't want to go to space because I thought it was imminent death.

I think at the prospect of bringing children into the world, your mortality comes very much to the forefront, absolutely.

The death clock is ticking slowly in our breast, and each drop of blood measures its time, and our life is a lingering fever.

I know my mom, she'd want her death to encourage people to be open about their struggles.
