Living in dreams of yesterday, we find ourselves still dreaming of impossible future conquests.

Is he alone who has courage on his right hand and faith on his left hand?

Life is like a landscape. You live in the midst of it but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance.

Isn't it strange that we talk least about the things we think about most?

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

I owned the world that hour as I rode over it. free of the earth, free of the mountains, free of the clouds, but how inseparably I was bound to them.

In wilderness I sense the miracle of life, and behind it our scientific accomplishments fade to trivia.

To a person in love, the value of the individual is intuitively known. Love needs no logic for its mission.

Real freedom lies in wildness, not in civilization.

It is the greatest shot of adrenaline to be doing what you have wanted to do so badly. You almost feel like you could fly without the plane.

Living in dreams of yesterday, we find ourselves still dreaming of impossible future conquests.

Man must feel the earth to know himself and recognize his values... God made life simple. It is man who complicates it.

I have seen the science I worshiped, and the aircraft I loved, destroying the civilization I expected them to serve.

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

Life is a culmination of the past, an awareness of the present, an indication of a future beyond knowledge, the quality that gives a touch of divinity to matter.

How long can men thrive between walls of brick, walking on asphalt pavements, breathing the fumes of coal and oil, growing, working, dying, with hardly a thought of wind, and sky, and fields of grain, seeing only machine-made beauty, the mineral-like quality of life?

I am shocked at the attitude of our American troops. They have no respect for death, the courage of an enemy soldier, or many of the ordinary decencies of life.

I know I will be severely criticized by the interventionists in America when I say we should not enter a war unless we have a reasonable chance of winning.

In time of war, truth is always replaced by propaganda.

No person with a sense of the dignity of mankind can condone the persecution of the Jewish race in Germany.

Real freedom lies in wildness, not civilization.

There is no better way to give comfort to an enemy than to divide the people of a nation over the issue of foreign war. There is no shorter road to defeat than by entering a war with inadequate preparation.

Time is no longer endless or the horizon destitute of hope.

Tolerance is a virtue that depends upon peace and strength.

We Americans are a primitive people... Americans seem to have little respect for the law or the rights of others.

We are in grave danger of losing forever not just millions of years of evolution on earth, but the eons of change that have produced man and his natural environment.

Aviation has struck a delicately balanced world, a world where stability was already giving way to the pressure of new dynamic forces, a world dominated by a mechanical, materialist, Western European civilization.

Aviation constituted a new and possibly decisive element in preventing or fighting a war, and I was in a unique position to observe European aviation especially in its military aspects.

When environment changes there must be a corresponding change in life.

As civilization advances, man grows unconscious of the primitive elements of life; he is separated from them by his perfection of material techniques.

We can so reconstruct society that it will be self-perpetuating instead of as now, self-exhaustive.

One of the most adventurous things left us is to go to bed. For no one can lay a hand on our dreams.

My life has been a continuous fulfillment of dreams. It appears that everything I saw and did has a new, and perhaps, more significant meaning, every time I see it. The earth is good. It is a privilege to live thereon.

Vain hopes are like certain dreams of those who wake.

We don't have an eternity to realize our dreams, only the time we are here.

Rude contact with facts chased my visions and dreams quickly away, and in their stead I beheld the horrors, the corruption, the evils and hypocrisy of society, and as I stood among them, a young wife, a great wail of agony went out from my soul.

The world is seldom what it seems; to man, who dimly sees, realities appear as dreams, and dreams realities.

I worked on my voice for Sweet Dreams, but only to match my speaking voice to Patsy's actual singing voice. That was my way into that character.

In my dreams, I could be a Princess, and that's what I was. Like most little girls, I believed nothing less than a Prince could make my dreams come true.

The only time you really live fully is from thirty to sixty. The young are slaves to dreams; the old servants of regrets. Only the middle-aged have all their five senses in the keeping of their wits.

The name Air Supply sort of came from nowhere. I get a lot of my things in dreams and I just had a dream about it one night, and I woke up and said that's just got to be the name. That was in 1975.

Only in our dreams are we free. The rest of the time we need wages.

War is eternity jammed into frantic minutes that will fill a lifetime with dreams and nightmares.

All books are either dreams or swords, you can cut, or you can drug, with words.

I'd really like to get the girl, shoot the gun, drive the car, have fun. I even have these kind of action dreams, where I'm the action guy.

Hopes are but the dreams of those that wake.

Judge of your natural character by what you do in your dreams.
