“All we who ask too much and have a dimension too many could not contrive to live at all if there were not another air to breathe outside the air of this world” - Hermann Hesse.

I had never been fond of the concept of flying in an airplane, but I treasured the experience of being above the clouds. Up here, there was peace and godsend scenery. Clarity and perspective that was hard to come about elsewhere.”
