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.

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.

A painter should begin every canvas with a wash of black, because all things in nature are dark except where exposed by the light.

The human bird shall take his first flight, filling the world with amazement, all writings with his fame, and bringing eternal glory to the nest whence he sprang.

When you put your hand in a flowing stream, you touch the last that has gone before and the first of what is still to come

I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection.
