Notable quotes

“Flying is years and years of utter boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror”
— Quoted in David Davies,
“Ours is the commencement of a flying age, and I am happy to have popped into existence at a period so interesting.”
— Amelia Earhart, 20 Hrs., 40 Min. [borrowable] (1928), p. 180
“Lest I make the people fly off from that city like a wild dove from its tree, lest I make them fly around like a bird over its well-founded nest.”
— Enmerkar, in Enmerkar and the Lord of Aratta, period (ca. 21st century BCE).
“Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.”
— This quotation was first used in print (and misattributed to Leonardo da Vinci) in a science fiction story published in 1975, The Storms of Windhaven. One of the authors, Lisa Tuttle, remembers that the quote was suggested by science fiction writer Ben Bova, who says he believes he got the quote from a TV documentary narrated by Fredric March, presumably I, Leonardo da Vinci, written by John H. Secondari for the series Saga of Western Man, which aired on 23 February 1965. Bova incorrectly assumed that he was quoting da Vinci. The probable author is John Hermes Secondari (1919-1975), American author and television producer.
“For some years I have been afflicted with the belief that flight is possible to man.”
— Wilbur Wright, letter to (13 May 1900)
“A flight ticket is a paper or electronic document that contains passenger information as well as flight information, including origin and destination, flight time, arrival time, and flight number.”
— Wilbur Wright, speech to the Western Society of Engineers (18 September 1901); published in the Journal of the Western Society of Engineers (December 1901); republished with revisions by the author for the Annual Report of the Board of Regents of the Smithsonian Institution (1902)
