Richard Bach

Avoid problems, and you'll never be the one who overcame them.

Listen to what you know instead of what you fear.

If you love someone, set them free. If they come back they're yours; if they don't they never were.

Same with anyone who's been flying for years and loves it still... we're part of a world we deeply love. Just as musicians feel about scores and melodies, dancers about the steps and flow of music, so we're one with the principle of flight, the magic of being aloft in the wind!

I've owned 41 airplanes. A few of them would talk with me. This little seaplane, though, we've had long conversations in flight. There's a spirit in anything, I think, into which we weave our soul. Not many pilots talk about it, but they think about it in the quiet dark of a night flight.

Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?

Ask yourself the secret of your success. Listen to your answer, and practice it.

The meaning I picked, the one that changed my life: Overcome fear, behold wonder.

To bring anything into your life, imagine that it's already there.

Our soulmate is the one who makes life come to life.

Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you.

I gave my life to become the person I am right now. Was it worth it?
