There is an art, or rather a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. – Douglas Adams, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
The desire to fly is an idea handed down to us by our ancestors who, in their grueling travels across trackless lands in prehistoric times, looked enviously on the birds soaring freely through space, at full speed, above all obstacles, on the infinite highway of the air. – Wilbur Wright
We now live in a world where the only thing to have is success, but failure is marvelous. Its fertiliser, its like living fertiliser, because youre forced on yourself. – Rupert Everett
