Quote

I take the paraglider to the mountain or I roll Daisy out of her hangar and I pick the prettiest part of the sky and I melt into the wing and then into the air, till I'm just soul on a sunbeam.

And behind it lies not blind chance but a principle that works to help us understand, a thousand coincidences and friends come to show us the way when the problem seems too hard to solve alone. Problems for overcoming. Freedom for proving. And, as long as we believe in our dream, nothing by chance.

Learning is finding out what you already know.
Richard Bach

If we want to end this lifetime higher than we began, we can expect an uphill road.
Richard Bach

Whatever enchants also guides and protects.

Of course I'm a fake. We're all fakes on this whole world, pretending to be something we're not. We are not just bodies walking around, not just atoms, molecules. We are unkillable, undestroyable ideas of the IS, no matter how much we believe otherwise.
Richard Bach

Don't be dismayed by good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.

Flying prevails whenever a man and his airplane are put to a test of maximum performance.

Look in the mirror and one thing is sure: what we see is not who we are.
Richard Bach

Nothing happens by chance, my friend... No such thing as luck. A meaning behind every little thing, and such a meaning behind this. Part for you, part for me, may not see it all real clear right now, but we will, before long.
Richard Bach

The space for what you want is already filled with what you settled for instead.
Richard Bach

For pilots sometimes see behind the curtain, behind the veil of gossamer velvet, and find the truth behind man, the force behind a universe.
Richard Bach
Image
Fly free and happy beyond birthdays and across forever, and we'll meet now and then when we wish, in the midst of the one celebration that never can end.
Richard Bach
Image
Not being known doesn't stop the truth from being true.

Heaven isnot a place, and it isnot atime.Heaven isbeing perfect.
Richard Bach
Image
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

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

Character comes from following our highest sense of right, from trusting ideas without being sure they’ll work.

It took time to learn that the hard thing about writing is to let the story write itself, while one sits at the typewriter and does as little thinking as possible. It happened over and over again, and the beginner learned - when you start puzzling over an idea, and slowing down on the keys, the writing gets worse and worse.

I'm a writer as rarely as possible, when forced by an idea too lovely to let die unwritten
