Alone? Is he alone at whose right side rides Courage, with Skill within the cockpit and faith upon the left?

I live only in the moment in this strange unmortal space, crowded with beauty, pierced with danger.
Charles Lindbergh

Without death there would be no awareness of life, and the recurring selection and renewal that has caused life's progress would be ended.

We must limit to a reasonable amount the Jewish influence...Whenever the Jewish percentage of total population becomes too high, a reaction seems to invariably occur. It is too bad because a few Jews of the right type are, I believe, an asset to any country.

What freedom lies in flying, what Godlike power it gives to men . . . I lose all consciousness in this strong unmortal space crowded with beauty, pierced with danger.
