Obviously I faced the possibility of not returning when first I considered going. Once faced and settled there really wasn't any good reason to refer to it.

More quotes by Amelia Earhart
Please know that I am aware of the hazards. I want to do it because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be a challenge to others.
Amelia Earhart
Now and then women should do for themselves what men have already done—occasionally what men have not done—thereby establishing themselves as persons, and perhaps encouraging other women toward greater independence of thought and action.
Amelia Earhart
Being alone is scary, but not as scary as feeling alone in a relationship.
Amelia Earhart
Please let us not interfere with the other's work or play, nor let the world see our private joys or disagreements. In this connection I may have to keep some place where I can go to be myself, now and then, for I cannot guarantee to endure at all times the confinements of even an attractive cage.
Amelia Earhart
No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another.
Amelia Earhart

You can do anything you decide to do.
Amelia Earhart
No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another. Good example is followed. A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees. The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves.
Amelia Earhart
The more one does and sees and feels, the more one is able to do, and the more genuine may be one's appreciation of fundamental things like home, and love, and understanding companionship.
Amelia Earhart
Never interrupt someone doing what you said couldn't be done. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life the process is its own reward. Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And if they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
Amelia Earhart
There are two kinds of stones, as everyone knows, one of which rolls.
Amelia Earhart
The more one does the more one can do.
Amelia Earhart
Worry retards reaction and makes clear-cut decisions impossible.
Amelia Earhart
In soloing - as in other activities - it is far easier to start something than it is to finish it.
Amelia Earhart
The best way to do it, is to do it!
Amelia Earhart
The soul's dominion? Each time we make a choice, we pay With courage to behold the restless day, And count it fair.
Amelia Earhart
In my life I had come to realize that when things were going very well indeed it was just the time to anticipate trouble. And, conversely, I learned from pleasant experience that at the most despairing crisis, when all looked sour beyond words, some delightful break was apt to lurk just around the corner.
