Altitude Quotes

Maybe I'll go where I can see stars, he said to himself as the car gained velocity and altitude; it headed away from San Francisco, toward the uninhabited desolation to the north. To the place where no living thing would go. Not unless it felt that the end had come. Philip K. Dick
The gaps are the thing. The gaps are the spirit's one home, the altitudes and latitudes so dazzlingly spare and clean that the spirit can discover itself like a once-blind man unbound. The gaps are the clefts in the rock where you cower to see the back parts of God; they are fissures between mountains and cells the wind lances through, the icy narrowing fiords splitting the cliffs of mystery. Go up into the gaps. If you can find them; they shift and vanish too. Stalk the gaps. Squeak... Annie Dillard
We have reached a little altitude where we may look down upon the Indian Thugs with a complacent shudder; and we may even hope for a day, many centuries hence, when our posterity will look down upon us in the same way. Mark Twain
Lois McMaster Bujold quote: "Not that I haven't leaped upinto the blinding light of..."
Not that I haven't leaped upinto the blinding light of competence now and then.It's sustaining the altitude that defeats me. Lois McMaster Bujold
I love weather. I'm a connoisseur of weather. Wherever my travels take me, the first thing I do is turn on the weather channel and see what's going on, what's coming. I like to know about regional weather patterns, how storms are created in different altitudes, what kinds of clouds are forming or dissipating or blowing through, where the winds are coming from, where they've been. That's not a passion everybody shares, I know, but I don't believe there are any people on earth who, properly... Johnny Cash
Kilimanjaro is a snow-covered mountain 19,710 feet high, and is said to be the highest mountain in Africa. Its western summit is called the Masai 'Ngaje Ngai', the House of God. Close to the western summit there is a dried and frozen carcas of a leopard. No one has explained what the leopard was seeking at that altitude. Ernest Hemingway
Zig Ziglar quote: "It is not your aptitude but your ATTITUDE that decides your..."
It is not your aptitude but your ATTITUDE that decides your altitude in life. Zig Ziglar
I returned to the courtyard and saw that the sun had grown weaker. Beautiful and clear as it had been, the morning (as the day approached the completion of its first half) was becoming damp and misty. Heavy clouds moved from the north and were invading the top of the mountain, covering it with a light brume. It seemed to be fog, and perhaps fog was also rising from the ground, but at that altitude it was difficult to distinguish the mists that rose from below and those that come down from... Umberto Eco
Get going. Move forward. Aim High. Plan a takeoff. Don't just sit on the runway and hope someone will come along and push the airplane. It simply won't happen. Change your attitude and gain some altitude. Believe me, you'll love it up here. Donald Trump
Zig Ziglar quote: "Attitude, not Aptitude, determines Altitude."
Attitude, not Aptitude, determines Altitude. Zig Ziglar
We launch when we're kind of in the same orbit that they are in terms of being matched up in inclination in space, and we're just in a little different altitude. Linda M. Godwin
Haile Gebrselassie quote: "I used to run to school, 10k every day. And this at altitude,..."
I used to run to school, 10k every day. And this at altitude, perfect preparation, really. Haile Gebrselassie
Clea Duvall quote: "Because of the high altitude, you get drunk really fast. So..."
Because of the high altitude, you get drunk really fast. So everyone's drunk all the time. Clea Duvall
To say that its wrong to feel this way is not the point; you do feel it. All you see is a flash of fire and, depending on your altitude, you don't even see that sometimes. James Dickey
On planes I always cry. Something about altitude, the lack of oxygen and the bad movies. I cried over a St. Bernard movie once on a plane. That was really embarrassing. Michael Stipe
