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.

Some of us have great runways already built for us. If you have one, take off. But if you don't have one, realize it is your responsibility to grab a shovel and build one for yourself and for those who will follow after you.

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.
