“Men become wise just as they become rich, more by what they save than by what th…” — Wilbur Wright

The fact that the great scientist believed in flying machines was the one thing that encouraged us to begin our studies.

I confess that in 1901 I said to my brother Orville that man would not fly for fifty years.

It is possible to fly without motors, but not without knowledge and skill.

I am an enthusiast, but not a crank in the sense that I have some pet theories as to the proper construction of a flying machine. I wish to avail myself of all that is already known and then, if possible, add my mite to help on the future worker who will attain final success.
