I'm Alexander—a student with an endless love for space, rockets, and anything that pushes technology forward. From weather balloons to web development, I channel curiosity into hands-on projects and share what I learn along the way.
“Don’t live life as a spectator.”
“Very often, human beings are living like on autopilot, reacting automatically with what happens. What interests me about the life of an explorer is you are in the unknown; you are out of your habits.”
“If you don’t believe me or don’t get it, I don’t have time to try to convince you, sorry.”
“Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.”
*This was my favorite quote until I found out that he never actually said this and that it came from a 1977 Newsweek profile on him.
“A society that puts equality before freedom will get neither. A society that puts freedom before equality will get a high degree of both.”
“A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.”
“What do you care what other people think?”
“Ultimately, arguing that you don’t care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say.”
“Courage is not the absence of fear. Only fools have no fear. Rather, courage is the intellectual mastery of fear by understanding the true risks and opportunities of the situation and keeping those things in balance.”
“Anticipating problems and figuring out how to solve them is actually the opposite of worrying: it’s productive.”
“I have too many ideas for a lifetime.”
“We ignore the noise and the distractions. We know our vision, our goals — and we just focus on getting there before anyone else can.”
“Testing leads to failure, and failure leads to understanding.”
“I pick projects according to how fascinating they are to me, and it has resulted in a broad reach.”
