From now on, depressions will be scientifically created.

If I had to choose, I would rather have birds than airplanes.

I hope you either take up parachute jumping or stay out of single motored airplanes at night.

Democracy can only spring from within a nation itself, only from the hearts and minds of its people.

It is about a period in aviation which is now gone, but which was probably more interesting than any the future will bring. As time passes, the perfection of machinery tends to insulate man from contact with the elements in which he lives. The 'stratosphere' planes of the future will cross the ocean without any sense of the water below. Like a train tunneling through a mountain, they will be aloof from both the problems and the beauty of the earth's surface.

We are all consumers and should all be producers.

The essence of life, I concluded, did not lie in the material. It penetrated, but was not bound to, the physical world of science.
