Fighting In The Air Is Not Sport.

If A Thing Is Old, It Is A Sign That It Was Fit To Live. The Guarantee Of Continuity Is Quality.

The Experienced Fighting Pilot Does Not Take Unnecessary Risks. His Business In To Shoot Down Enemy Planes, Not To Get Shot Down. His Trained Hand And Eye And Judgment Are As Much A Part Of His Armament As His Machinegun, And A Fiftyfifty Chance Is The Worst He Will Take Or Should Take Except Where The Show Is Of The Kind That . . . Justifies The Sacrifice Of Plane Or Pilot.

The Experienced Fighting Pilot Does Not Take Unnecessary Risks. His Business Is To Shoot Down Enemy Planes, Not To Get Shot Down.

When I Look Up And See The Sun Shining On The Patch Of White Clouds Up In The Blue, I Begin To Think How It Would Feel To Be Up Somewhere Above It Winging Swiftly Through The Clean Air, Watching The Earth Below.

If A Thing Is Old, It Is A Sign That It Was Fit To Live. Old Families, Old Customs, Old Styles Survive Because They Are Fit To Survive. The Guarantee Of Continuity Is Quality. Submerge The Good In A Flood Of The New, And Good Will Come Back To Join The Good Which The New Brings With It. Old-fashioned Hospitality, Old-fashioned Politeness, Old-fashioned Honor In Business Had Qualities Of Survival. These Will Come Back.
