"When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us."; "What this power is I cannot say; all I know is that it exists and it becomes available only when a man is in that state of mind in which he knows exactly what he wants and is fully determined not to quit until he finds it."; "The nation that secures control of the air will ultimately control the world."; "The most successful men in the end are those whose success is the result of steady accretion."; "Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is open."; …"Neither the Army nor the Navy is of any protection, or very little protection, against aerial raids."; "Great discoveries and improvements invariably involve the cooperation of many minds.
