Quote #2194 about flying by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
"A pilot's business is with the wind, and with the stars, with night, with sand, with the sea. He strives to outwit the forces of nature.

He looks forward to port as a promised land, and truth for him is what lives in the stars."by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
