And if I see – you know, if I fly on somebody else’s airline and find the experience is not a pleasant one, which it wasn’t in – 21 years ago, then I’d think, well, you know, maybe I can create the kind of airline that I’d like to fly on.’ – Richard Branson

Sinatra. Paul Simon. Tony Bennett. I’m the only one.’ – Quincy Jones

‘The poker player learns that sometimes both science and common sense are wrong; that the bumblebee can fly; that, perhaps, one should never trust an expert; that there are more things in Heaven and Earth than are dreamt of by those with an academic bent.’ – David Mamet

‘Learning to fly an airplane taught me a way of thinking, an approach to problem-solving that was applicable and effective. Pilots are very methodical and meticulous, and artists tend not to be.’ – Chris Carter

‘Plenty of people out there think of me as the Antichrist or the devil incarnate because I do not affirm the literal patterns of the Bible. But the fact is I can no more abandon the literal patterns than I could fly to the moon. I just go beyond them.’ – John Shelby Spong

‘Now that we’ve discovered how to actually develop policies and projects holistically, if we can get the barriers out of the way and release the creativity that’s in our universities, our farming organizations, amongst our farmers and land managers, we’ll be astounded. As I’d like to express it, the human spirit will fly.’ – Allan Savory

‘My mother, she made sure all of us were treated the same and had the same opportunity to grow and develop, so that when we left the house, we could fly on our own.

‘I moved back to Buffalo in 2009, and I had this moment where I wanted to have the best of both worlds. I wanted to be able to be in church and cook at home but then still get on a plane and fly back to New York and be this supermodel.’ – Jessica White

‘I took part in two ‘Leverage’ conventions. Fans fly in from as far as Russia and Australia. It’s expensive to attend.’ – Gina Bellman

‘The bravest thing I’ve ever done is fly to New York. I’m simply terrified of aeroplanes – I am the woman you see weeping at the airport.’ – Samantha Bond

‘I always believed ‘The Fly’ to be a classic opera story. It’s a tale of love and death, true love surviving in the face of physical decay and ultimate sacrifice.’ – Howard Shore

‘I sit around for ages waiting for inspiration. Then when I get an idea, I want to go with it and get something as quickly as possible. It’s like catching a fly in a bottle. I’ll play with drums for a bit, then the piano for a bit, play the guitar.’ – Jamie Cullum

‘With a tennis racket strapped tightly to her hiking pack, Martina Navratilova began her ascent of Mount Kilimanjaro. The tennis legend had visions of celebrating at the summit of Africa’s highest peak by hitting a couple balls to see how far they might fly in the thin air at 19,341 feet.’ – Don Yaeger

‘More passengers fly in and out of London than any other city in the world. We are well-connected, we have ample capacity, and we are starting from a position of strength. The problem is that we don’t use that capacity well.’ – Zac Goldsmith

‘I have wanted to fly into space for many years, but never imagined it would really be feasible.’ – Stephen Hawking

‘Sports exact too harsh a toll on our beautiful women. Like engendered species, they should be protected, and instead, we exploit them and demand they fly too close to the sun for our amusement. We send them into the arena for an exhausting three-setter, an 18-hole playoff, a 200th lap. The burnout factor is insurmountable.’ – Kevin Bleyer

‘The episode of the ‘shoe bomber,’ Richard Reid, has suddenly meant more feet being bared at airports than at the average Hindu temple. My solution has been to replace my customary lace-up Oxfords with a pair of slip-on loafers when I fly. Generals are always fighting the last war, and security screeners are the same.’ – Shashi Tharoor

‘The more people you help and the more value you create, the more your business will fly – and the quicker you’ll win.’ – Robin S. Sharma

‘The car resembles a dragon fly or any other jumping animal that moves shorter distances in straight lines and then changes its direction at different points.’ – Fritz Todt

‘Our nano-quadrotor robots are made to be as lightweight as possible: less than a fifth of a pound and palm-sized. They can do an aerial backflip in half a second, accelerate at two Gs, and fly rotor blade to rotor blade in three-dimensional formations – and they do all this autonomously.’ – Vijay Kumar

‘I started with paragliding. Paragliding is taking off from mountains with a paraglider, with the possibility to fly cross-country, distance, just with the use of thermals to soar. Also, different aerobatic maneuvers are possible with a paraglider. From there, I started with skydiving.’ – Ueli Gegenschatz

‘For many years in my laboratory and other laboratories around the world, we’ve been studying fly behaviors in little flight simulators. You can tether a fly to a little stick. You can measure the aerodynamic forces it’s creating. You can let the fly play a little video game by letting it fly around in a visual display.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘If flies are a great model, they’re a great model for flies. These animals, you know, they’re not like us. We don’t fly. We don’t have a compound eye. I don’t think we process sensory information the same way. The muscles that they use are just incredibly much more sophisticated and interesting than the muscles we use.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘Fly flight is just a great phenomenon to study. It has everything – from the most sophisticated sensory biology; really, really interesting physics; really interesting muscle physiology; really interesting neural computations.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘Although their maneuverability is limited, blind flies can fly remarkably well.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘It is difficult, but intriguing, to imagine seeing the world as a fly might. First, flies don’t have nearly the same visual resolution that we do… so you have to imagine a fuzzier image. Second, fly eyes are faster than our own and are very sensitive to motion.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘If you watch a fly on, say, a coffee table, you’ll see that they’re rubbing their little legs together to groom themselves; they’re actually quite clean creatures.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘The robotic fly that we actually make the most use of in our laboratory is actually not a small thing, it’s a giant thing. It has about a meter wing span, and it flaps in three metric tons of mineral oil. And it is a so-called dynamically scaled fly.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘One of the fastest things a fruit fly does is take information from its eyes and react accordingly.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘A fly with a brain the size of a salt grain has the behavioral repertoire nearly as complex as a much larger animal such as a mouse. That’s a super-interesting problem from an engineering perspective.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘When it first notices an approaching threat, a fly’s body might be in any sort of posture depending on what it was doing at the time, like grooming, feeding, walking, or courting. Our experiments showed that the fly somehow ‘knows’ whether it needs to make large or small postural changes to reach the correct preflight posture.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘It is best not to swat at the fly’s starting position, but rather to aim a bit forward of that to anticipate where the fly is going to jump when it first sees your swatter.’ – Michael Dickinson

‘There are few industries as defiantly opaque as shipping. Even offshore bankers have not developed a system as intricately elusive as the flag of convenience, under which ships can fly the flag of a state that has nothing to do with its owner, cargo, crew, or route.’ – Rose George

‘We see the sea as this place of leisure and this place, you know, a blue patch on the map to fly over because we all go by plane these days, mostly. And we don’t really see it as a place of industry anymore.’ – Rose George

‘Since the 1920s, when some U.S. cruise ships decided to fly a Panamanian flag to avoid Prohibition regulations, ships have commonly flown the flag of countries foreign to their owners. The benefits are obvious: lower taxes, laxer labor and safety laws.’ – Rose George

‘If you don’t like airline food, you’ll probably have the same impression of space station food. I would not fly to space for the food.’ – Chris Hadfield

‘If you go back to ‘Pretty Fly,’ it was a very popish song, but there was a satirical side to it, and I think that’s cool. I like the idea that it’s making people think just a little bit.’ – Dexter Holland

‘In the Soyuz, the little Russian capsule, you can actually hear the banging of the big shield, the big heat shield on the bottom, as it slowly erodes away from the heat and pieces of it fly off like sparks across your window, and it’s an interesting thing to ride through, you know.’ – Chris Hadfield

‘Nothing focuses your mind quite like flying a jet. That’s one reason NASA requires that astronauts fly T-38s: it forces us to concentrate and prioritize in some of the same ways we need to in a rocket ship.’ – Chris Hadfield

‘If you don’t have a voice that forces you back to basics, you’re a dangerous person. Or to put it another way: You’re at risk, and the people with you are at risk. I’m not a daredevil. I don’t fly without a safety net.’ – Steve Wynn

‘I do like to fly under the radar. When I walk around town, the only people I want to recognise me and call me by my name are the folks at Starbucks.’ – Pierre Omidyar

‘I hate that thing that if you are over 45, and you’re going to be on telly or make films, you have to do all this stupid stuff to your face. I would no more let someone stick a needle in my forehead than fly to the moon.’ – Lesley Manville

‘When I first came in the business, I had a couple of close calls on planes going to London for shows. There was one time where the plane had to fly around until a storm ended, and then we started having a question about fuel, so we had to go through the storm. It was the worst thing that ever happened in my life. That really messed me up.’ – R. Kelly

‘I cherish the memory of being a friend of Frank Sinatra on a friendship level to the point where we really hung out.

‘I learned to fly a few years ago in England. It’s the only place I’m completely alone – up in the air, detached from everything.’ – Angelina Jolie

‘When it comes to comedy, it might be interesting to know why an airplane works, but really? Maybe it’s better not to know why certain things work. Just fly the thing, and if nothing falls apart, you’ll be fine.’ – Bill Hader

‘Drones ply the liminal space between the physical and the digital – pilots fly them, but aren’t in them. They are versatile and fascinating objects – the things they can do range from the mundane (aerial photography) to the spectacular – killing people, for example.’ – John Battelle

‘When I fly, I never check my bags. I bring a carry-on, an eye pillow, noise-canceling headphones, a big pillow and a blanket.’ – Nina Dobrev

‘My shoots are very much about skin, so I’m an exfoliating and moisturizing nut. I fly so much, so I take my makeup off as soon as I get on the airplane. I look at my watch every half hour and moisturize.’ – Chrissy Teigen

‘When I was at high school, I thought it’d be nice to go into Air Force Academy and fly jets, but that was a very brief dream. Ha, ha. I’m too lanky to fit in the cockpit.’ – Emily Robison

‘I just want that sensation you have in dreams when you fly to be real.’ – Janet Montgomery

‘My dad signed me up for some acting classes at a place in Honolulu, and there I got to audition for some L.A.-based talent agents. I got a few ‘callbacks’ and so my mom and I decided to fly to California and check it out!’ – Maxim Knight

‘My parents always swore that in my childhood they had to let me win at board games. If, by the lucky stroke of the plastic wheel, my father would accidentally beat me at Candy Land, I would fly into fits of bawling that I’m told would last for hours. If I couldn’t triumph, I didn’t want to play.’ – Koren Zailckas

‘I’ve actually done three pilots for Disney. I met with the network when I was 16 years old and had just started acting. I would fly to Los Angeles to film pilots, then fly back to Dallas, where I grew up.’ – Spencer Boldman

‘I watched ‘Iron Man 3’ the other night, and my chin was on the floor. ‘Vikingdom’ is a different type of movie, because it’s rooted in reality. The characters are more real; they’re not these superhuman people who can fly and do things.’ – Craig Fairbrass

‘Growing up in Oklahoma the way I did, and being raised the way I was raised by my parents, gave me such a strong foundation to go out into the world and fly, so to speak, the way I was able to do.’ – Suzy Amis

‘I love to fly so much.’ – Karine Vanasse

‘I don’t throw money away. First class tickets are very expensive. Why should I fly first class if I can fly business, which is the same thing? I would only fly first class if the ticket included access to some sort of special compartment that could save me if there was any crash.’ – Silvio Santos

‘I learned the mechanics of how to fly a plane, but I never lifted a plane off the ground.’ – Adam Beach

‘The more you fly, the more unsettling it is, because you realize how much more likely it will be for you to crash. I am getting better at it, though.’ – Kit Harington

‘Conflict photographers grapple with two worlds that are themselves often in conflict – the one where bombs fall and bullets fly, where adrenaline runs high, and the other, back home, which is comparatively secure, and where the big event of the day may involve selecting swatches of fabric for a new sofa.’ – Alan Huffman

‘I’m inspired when I find out about something that I didn’t know was a remake. An example is, of course, stuff like ‘The Fly,’ or ‘The Thing,’ or even ‘The Blob.’ For our generation, all those things, whether it was ‘The Blob’ or ‘The Fly’ or something else, we had no idea they were remakes.’ – Fede Alvarez

‘Who was the first person to fly across the Atlantic? Lindbergh. Who was the second? No idea.’ – Tim O’Reilly

‘Because it flew without a pilot, the D-21 was designed to fly over territory where the U.S. was denied access and to take photographs of weapons facilities from altitudes as low as 1,500 feet. But the project was canceled on July 30, 1966, after a fatal accident at sea during the drone’s first official launch.’ – Annie Jacobsen

‘When the children were little, I’d fly into L.A. for a specific work project, but then I’d leave again, and when I was home, I wouldn’t even read a script.’ – Andie MacDowell

‘That’s what all art’s about – a sense of moving away from boundaries that you can’t in real life. Like a dancer is always trying to fly, really – to do something that’s just not possible. But you try to do as much as you can within those physical boundaries.’ – Kate Bush

‘I once had money to burn. I’d fly to Barbados for the weekend. I lived in a twenty-two-room mansion and had my pick of four luxury cars.’ – Peter Criss

‘I like to fly under the radar.’ – Lynsi Torres

‘New applications will have to deal with big data. We have to analyze it on the fly, so we have to have a system that is transactional and analytical at the same time. We cannot have a multi-stage system. This is too slow for modern applications.’ – Hasso Plattner

‘You fly for hours and hours and hours over Africa to go from one place to another.’ – Mo Ibrahim

‘A great deal of my mail comes from fans of the ‘Oz’ picture – fans of all ages. The scholarly, the curious, the disbelievers write and ask how? why? when? what for? did you fly? melt? scream? cackle? appear? disappear? produce? sky-write? deal with monkeys? etc., etc., etc.’ – Margaret Hamilton

‘I see film roles as lovely presents that come along now and again. I feel really lucky and say thank you very much. And if they fly me to L.A., I think, ‘God, I must really be doing well.’ I’ve worked with De Niro and Brando and Pacino, and that’s made me feel very lucky. But the films have never meant a lot to me.’ – Michael Gambon

‘Bears are extremely human, even down to their footprints. But I am also a fly fisherman, so I have fished beside brown bears in Alaska and was once charged by a black bear. I love bears.’ – Joseph Monninger

‘When a trout rises to a fly, it does not swim as much as tilt its fins and jet skyward.’ – Joseph Monninger

‘I hate to fly. I’m deathly afraid of it.’ – Gina Prince-Bythewood

‘Let’s say you need a perfectly obedient servant who never gets tired, never needs to be paid, and is virtually indestructible.

‘Weightlessness was unbelievable. It’s physical euphoria: Nothing about you has any weight. You don’t realize that you are weighed down all the time by yourself, and your organs, and your head.

‘I usually try to eat in my restaurants before I fly, as I’d rather sleep on the plane and just order a salad with cheese, maybe some ice cream.’ – Daniel Boulud

‘Who doesn’t want to fly around in a spaceship?’ – Douglas Booth

‘Don’t hold back in your writing. Take risks. Go ahead and tackle that crazy idea that you think will never fly, because that may be the one that makes you stand out from the crowd. Keep pushing the envelope.’ – Carrie Vaughn

‘It’s the little details I love. How to fletch your arrows with owl feathers, because owls fly silently, so maybe your arrows will, too. How to carry fire in a piece of smouldering fungus wrapped in birchbark. These are the things which help a world come alive.’ – Michelle Paver

‘I want to make the world real. I have to be able to believe that it could happen. I can’t put Pegasus in my stories because horses can’t fly. It’s just a quirk in my brain.’ – Michelle Paver

‘On our studio album ‘Fly From Here’ in 2011, we spent a year and a half promoting that around the world.’ – Chris Squire

‘The typical baseball play is a pitcher throwing a ball and the batter not swinging at it, while the other players watch.
