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
It is the woman who chooses the man who will choose her.
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
Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
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.

Amelia Earhart
The field was wet, the lane was wet, and the spirits of my mechanic and helper were damp.

Amelia Earhart
I lay no claim to advancing scientific data other than advancing flying knowledge. I can only say that I do it because I want to.
Amelia Earhart
No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another.
Amelia Earhart
To worry is to add another hazard.
Amelia Earhart
So I accept these awards on behalf of the cake bakers and all of those other women who can do some things quite as important, if not more important, than flying, as well as in the name of women flying today.
Amelia Earhart
The more one does the more one can do.
Amelia Earhart
I'm getting housemaid's knee kneeling here gulping beauty.
Amelia Earhart
The most difficult thing is the decision to act!
Amelia Earhart
Human crises have a way of happening at inconvenient times.
Amelia Earhart
Courage is the price that Life exacts for granting peace, The soul that knows it not, knows no release, From little things Knows not the livid loneliness of fear Nor mountain heights where bitter joy can hear The sound of wings.
Amelia Earhart
