aviators

“ Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn. ”

“ Tell them that as soon as I can walk I'm going to fly! ”

“ I knew we had no aviators, neither men nor women. ”

“ Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes. ”

“ As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot. ”

“ I thought it my duty to risk my life to learn aviation and to encourage flying among men and women of our race, who are so far behind the white race in this modern study. ”

“ I made my mind up to try. I tried and was successful. ”

“ A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way. ”

“ Ah, women. They make the nights higher and the lows more frequent. ”

“ The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles. ”
