How can Life grant us boon of living, compensateFor dull grey ugliness and pregnant hateUnless we dareThe soul's dominion? Each time we make a choice, we payWith courage to behold the resistless day,And count it fair.
Amelia Earhart

More quotes by Amelia Earhart
Being alone is scary, but not as scary as feeling alone in a relationship.
Amelia Earhart
The most difficult thing is the decision to act. The rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life and the procedure. The process is its own reward.
Amelia Earhart
Experiment! Meet new people. That’s better than any college education . . . By adventuring about, you become accustomed to the unexpected. The unexpected then becomes what it really is . . . the inevitable.
Amelia Earhart
Adventure is worthwhile in itself.
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
Better do a good deed near at home than go far away to burn incense.
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
You haven't seen a tree until you've seen its shadow from the sky.
Amelia Earhart
In soloing - as in other activities - it is far easier to start something than it is to finish it.
Amelia Earhart
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.
Amelia Earhart
I did for the fun of it
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.
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
The field was wet, the lane was wet, and the spirits of my mechanic and helper were damp.
Amelia Earhart
Flying might not be all plain sailing, but the fun of it is worth the price.
Amelia Earhart
Ours is the commencement of a flying age, and I am happy to have popped into existence at a period so interesting.
Amelia Earhart
Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace.
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
Women must pay for everything. They do get more glory than men for comparable feats, but, they also get more notoriety when they crash.
Amelia Earhart
Use your fear... it can take you to the place where you store your courage.
Amelia Earhart
