Charles Dickens
"It was a love of the air and sky and flying, the lure of adventure, the appreciation of beauty.

"Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them."
David Hume
"Perhaps extreme danger strips us of all pretenses, all ambitions, all confusions, focusing us more intensely than we are otherwise ever focused, so that we remember what we otherwise spend most of our lives forgetting: that our nature and purpose is, more than anything else, to love and to make love, to take joy from the beauty of the world, to live with an awareness that the future is not as real a place for any of us as are the present and the past."
Dean Koontz
"It is better to be happy for a moment and be burned up with beauty than to live a long time and be bored all the while."
Donald Robert Perry Marquis
"People are like stained glass windows; they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light within."
Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
