If God wanted us to fly, He would have given us tickets.

God does things that fly completely in the face of what we've all been taught that He is supposed to do and every time He does this, we all just say, 'Oh, well, I guess there must be some good reason why He did that.'

We ought to fly away from earth to heaven as quickly as we can; and to fly away is to become like God, as far as this is possible; and to become like him is to become holy, just, and wise.

God made man to go by motives, and he will not go without them, any more than a boat without steam or a balloon without gas.

There's something just magical about flight. Period.

If God had wanted man to play soccer, he wouldn't have given us arms.

If the workers took a notion they could stop all speeding trains; every ship upon the ocean they can tie with mighty chains.

All things are lessons that God would have us learn.

There is no great invention, from fire to flying, which has not been hailed as an insult to some god.
