“Please know I am quite aware of the hazards. I want to do it because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, then failure must be but a challenge to others.”
-Amelia Earhart, final letter to George P. Putnam

"Did you know, that in New Guinea, the land is nothing but silt, held together by tangled vines? It’s not anchored at all, and so it can float off.

And you see them standing, antelopes, rabbits, and deer, on these islands, floating away.”
-Amelia Earhart"
