Richard Bach

We are each given a block of marble when we begin a lifetime, and the tools to shape it into sculpture... We can drag it behind us untouched, we can pound it into gravel, we can shape it into glory.
Richard Bach
Image

Richard Bach
Image
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world the master calls a butterfly.
Richard Bach
Image
Why fly? Simple. I'm not happy unless there's some room between me and the ground.

Strong beliefs win strong men, and then make them stronger.
Richard Bach

Everything of this life as a mortal is fiction. It seems real, but...
Richard Bach
Image
Good and evil are not what our parents told us, not what our church tells us, or our country, not what anybody else tells us! All of us decide good and evil for ourselves, automatically, by choosing what we want to do!
