Now, all that I feared would happen has happened. We are at war all over the world, and we are unprepared for it from either a spiritual or a material standpoint.

More quotes by Charles Lindbergh
History has recorded nothing so dramatic in design, nor so skillfully manipulated, as this attempt to create the National Reserve Association, or the Federal Reserve.
Charles Lindbergh
To be a true Progressive it is not sufficient to stand up and say that one belives in what has been promulgated as progressive principles. One must be progressive in heart and active in promoting the progressive principles of today, tomorrow and always. There is no resting point, for humanity is ever ascending to a higher and better goal.
Charles Lindbergh
The Jews are one of the principle forces attempting to lead the U.S. into the war. The Jews greatest danger to this country lies in their large ownership and influence in our motion pictures, our press, our radio and our Government. I am saying that the LEADERS of the Jewish race wish to involve us in the war for reasons that are NOT AMERICAN.
Charles Lindbergh
Isn't it strange that we talk least about the things we think about most?
Charles Lindbergh
Success is not measured by what a man accomplishes, but by the opposition he has encountered and the courage with which he has maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds.
Charles Lindbergh
The manipulation of credit has been the most potent of all methods employed by financiers as a means of controlling commerce and fixing prices.We are all consumers and should all be producers.This credit is a tax upon humanity as if government bonds were issued and people were obliged to pay it.
Charles Lindbergh
My father had been opposed to my flying from the first and had never flown himself. However, he had agreed to go up with me at the first opportunity, and one afternoon he climbed into the cockpit and we flew over the Redwood Falls together. From that day on I never heard a word against my flying and he never missed a chance to ride in the plane.
Charles Lindbergh
In wilderness I sense the miracle of life.
Charles Lindbergh
Pilots are drawn to flying because it's a perfect combination of science, romance and adventure.
Charles Lindbergh
Flying has torn apart the relationship of space and time: it uses our old clock but with new yardsticks.
Charles Lindbergh
Aviation has struck a delicately balanced world, a world where stability was already giving way to the pressure of new dynamic forces, a world dominated by a mechanical, materialist, Western European civilization.
Charles Lindbergh
In wilderness I sense the miracle of life, and behind it our scientific accomplishments fade to trivia.
Charles Lindbergh
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.
Charles Lindbergh
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.
Charles Lindbergh
Sometimes, flying feels too godlike to be attained by man. Sometimes, the world from above seems too beautiful, too wonderful, too distant for human eyes to see .
Charles Lindbergh
Consciousness grows independent of the ordinary senses.
Charles Lindbergh
I know myself as mortal, but this raises the question: What is I? Am I an individual, or am I an evolving life stream composed of countless selves?
Charles Lindbergh
Individuals are custodians of the life stream -- temporal manifestations of far greater being, forming from and returning to their essence like so many dreams.
Charles Lindbergh
We cannot allow the natural passions and prejudices of other peoples to lead our country to destruction.
Charles Lindbergh
When I watch species other than my own, their instinct's wisdom is what most impresses and disturbs me.
Charles Lindbergh
