Success breeds confidence  (Beryl Markham Quotes) But, for a little while, this is the place for us -- a good place too--a place of good omen, a place of beginning things--and of ending things I never thought would end.  (Beryl Markham Quotes) A life has to move or it stagnates. Even this life, I think. Every tomorrow ought not to resemble every yesterday  (Beryl Markham Quotes) Memory is a drug. Memory can hold you against your strength and against your will  (Beryl Markham Quotes) There are many Africas  (Beryl Markham Quotes) The abhorrence of loneliness is as natural as wanting to live at all  (Beryl Markham Quotes) I have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesteryears are buried deep, leave it any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can. Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead. Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance  (Beryl Markham Quotes) A lovely horse is always an experience... It is an emotional experience of the kind that is spoiled by words  (Beryl Markham Quotes) The way to find a needle in a haystack is to sit down  (Beryl Markham Quotes) No human pursuit achieves dignity until it can be called work  (Beryl Markham Quotes) There are all kinds of silences and each of them means a different thing  (Beryl Markham Quotes) Who thinks it just to be judged by a single error?  (Beryl Markham Quotes) Africa is less a wilderness than a repository of primary and fundamental values, and less a barbaric land than an unfamiliar voice  (Beryl Markham Quotes) Harmony comes gradually to a pilot and his plane. The wing does not want so much to fly true as to tug at the hands that guide it; the ship would rather hunt the wind than lay her nose to the horizon far ahead. She has a derelict quality in her character; she toys with freedom and hints at liberation, but yields her own desires gently  (Beryl Markham Quotes) It is absurd for a man to kill an elephant. It is not brutal, it is not heroic, and certainly it is not easy; it is just one of those preposterous things that men do like putting a dam across a great river, one tenth of whose volume could engulf the whole of mankind without disturbing the domestic life of a single catfish  (Beryl Markham Quotes) Life had a different shape; it had new branches and some of the old branches were dead  (Beryl Markham Quotes) All the science of flying has been captured in the breadth of an instrument board, but not the religion of it  (Beryl Markham Quotes) The sun is as dispassionate as the hand of a man who greets you with his mind on other things  (Beryl Markham Quotes) In view of this and other things, I demand forgiveness for being so obviously impressed with my own parents  (Beryl Markham Quotes) I look at my yesterdays for months past, and find them as good a lot of yesterdays as anybody might want. I sit there in the firelight and see them all. The hours that made them were good, and so were the moments that made the hours. I have had responsibilities and work, dangers and pleasure, good friends, and a world without walls to live in  (Beryl Markham Quotes) Roots of the weed sucked first life from the genesis of earth and hold the essence of it still. Always the weed returns; the cultured plant retreats before it  (Beryl Markham Quotes) I learned what every dreaming child needs to know, that no horizon is so far you cannot get above it or beyond it  (Beryl Markham Quotes) What a child does not know and does not want to know of race and color and class, he learns soon enough as he grows to see each man flipped inexorably into some predestined groove like a penny or a sovereign in a banker’s rack  (Beryl Markham Quotes) Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance. The cloud clears as you enter it. I have learned this, but like everyone, I learned it late  (Beryl Markham Quotes) One day the stars will be as familiar to each man as the landmarks, the curves, and the hills on the road that leads to his door, and one day that will be an airborne life  (Beryl Markham Quotes) If a man has any greatness in him, it comes to light, not in one flamboyant hour, but in the ledger of his daily work  (Beryl Markham Quotes) If your hunch proves a good one, you were inspired; if it proves bad, you are guilty of yielding to thoughtless impulse  (Beryl Markham Quotes) A map says to you. Read me carefully, follow me closely, doubt me not... I am the earth in the palm of your hand  (Beryl Markham Quotes) You can live a lifetime and at the end of it, know more about other people than you know about yourself  (Beryl Markham Quotes) A man can be riddled with malaria for years on end, with its chills and its fevers and its nightmares, but if one day he sees that the water from his kidneys is black, he knows he will not leave that place again, wherever he is, or wherever he hoped to be  (Beryl Markham Quotes)
