The desire to fly is an idea handed down to us by our ancestors who... looked enviously on the birds soaring freely through space... on the infinite highway of the air.

I want to think again of dangerous and noble things.
I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable beautiful and afraid of nothing,
as though I had wings.

I will fly I am born with potential I am born with goodness and trust I am born with ideas and dreams I am born with greatness I am born with confidence I am born with wings So, I am not meant for crawling, I have wings, I will fly I will fly and fly.

Why do I need feet when I have wings to fly?

Feet, What do I need you for when I have wings to fly?

You might as well make yourself fly as to make yourself love.

"I want to fly! I want to touch the sun!"
"Finish your eggs first."

I am tired of having hands
she said
I want wings — But what will you do without your hands
to be human?

I am tired of human
she said

I will fly to those royal birds,

My dearest wish was to reach for the sky. I actually wanted to be out there, up in the sky, among those stars, studying them, flying close to them, learning where they had come from. The wonders of the sky held a special fascination for me and if I knew then that my work as an adult would have me building satellites and rockets that travelled far above the earth and studied the sky and the land below, how happy I would have been!

Don't just fly, soar.

Sometimes I fly like an eagle but with the wings of a wren

He could do what all men wanted to, that is, fly
