Danh ngôn của Amelia Earhart (Sứ mệnh: 4)

Better do a good deed near at home than go far away to burn incense.
The more one does and sees and feels, the more one is able to do, and the more genuine may be one's appreciation of fundamental things like home, and love, and understanding companionship.
The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.
Never interrupt someone doing what you said couldn't be done.
Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
There is so much that must be done in a civilized barbarism like war.
Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
Women must pay for everything. They do get more glory than men for comparable feats, but, they also get more notoriety when they crash.
Obviously I faced the possibility of not returning when first I considered going. Once faced and settled there really wasn't any good reason to refer to it.
I have often said that the lure of flying is the lure of beauty.
Aviation, this young modern giant, exemplifies the possible relationship of women and the creations of science. Although women have not taken full advantage of its use and benefits, air travel is as available to them as to men.
Aviation offered such fun as crossing the continent in planes large and small, trying the whirling rotors of an autogiro, making record flights. With these activities came opportunity to know women everywhere who shared my conviction that there is so much women can do in the modern world and should be permitted to do irrespective of their sex.
Mostly, my flying has been solo, but the preparation for it wasn't. Without my husband's help and encouragement, I could not have attempted what I have. Ours has been a contented and reasonable partnership, he with his solo jobs and I with mine. But always with work and play together, conducted under a satisfactory system of dual control.
