Jules Verne Quotes:
Ocupation: Novelist
Life: February 8, 1828 - March 24, 1905
Birthday: February 8
Death: March 24
I had no need of sails to drive me, nor oars nor wheels to push me, nor rails to give me a faster road. Air is what I wanted, that was all. Air surrounds me as water surrounds the submarine boat, and in it my propellers act like the screws of a steamer. That is how I solved the problem of aviation. That is what a balloon will never do, nor will any machine that is lighter than air.
