We Can So Reconstruct Society That It

Life's Values Originate In Circumstances Over Which The Individual Has No Control.

We Can Have Peace And Security Only So Long As We Band Together To Preserve That Most Priceless Possession, Our Inheritance Of European Blood, Only So Long As We Guard Ourselves Against Attack By Foreign Armies And Dilution By Foreign Races.

Decades Spent In Contact With Science And Its Vehicles Have Directed My Mind And Senses To Areas Beyond Their Reach. I Now See Scientific Accomplishments As A Path, Not An End; A Path Leading To And Disappearing In Mystery.

I'm Not Bound To Be In Aviation At All. I'm Here Only Because I Love The Sky And Flying More Than Anything Else On Earth. Of Course There's Danger; But A Certain Amount Of Danger Is Essential To The Quality Of Life. I Don't Believe In Taking Foolish Chances' But Nothing Can Be Accomplished Without Taking Any Chance At All.

I Realized That The Future Of Aviation, To Which I Had Devoted So Much Of My Life, Depended Less On The Perfection Of Aircraft Than On Preserving The Epoch-evolved Environment Of Life, And That This Was True Of All Technological Progress.
