Quote by Wilbur Wright
I am an enthusiast, but not a crank in the sense that I have some

I am an enthusiast, but not a crank in the sense that I have some pet theories as to the proper construction of a flying machine. I wish to avail myself of all that is already known and then, if possible, add my mite to help on the future worker who will attain final success. – Wilbur Wright

Other quotes by Wilbur Wright
