It is well to fetter the wings of our fancy and restrain its flights.

I have often said that the lure of flying is the lure of beauty.

For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return.

The sensation of flying is incredible, and it's such a miraculous notion to go into the air and see the world without delineation.

I don't know why I ever come in here. The flies get the best of everything.

The glamour of air travel - its aspirational meaning in the public imagination - disappeared before its luxury did, dissipating as flying gradually became commonplace.

When someone hands you a flyer, it's like they're saying here you throw this away.

To fly as fast as thought, you must begin by knowing that you have already arrived.

Flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.

We all fly. Once you leave the ground, you fly. Some people fly longer than others.
