Cornelia Fort quotes
-
“Any girl who has flown at all grows used to the prejudice of most men pilots who will trot out any number of reasons why women can't possibly be good pilots. . . . The only way to show the disbelievers, the snickering hangar pilots, is to show them.”
-- Cornelia Fort -
“We realized what a spot we were in. We had to deliver the goods, or else there wouldn't ever be another chance for women pilots in any part of the service.”
-- Cornelia Fort -
“I am grateful that my one talent, flying, was useful to my country.”
-- Cornelia Fort
