Like many of his fellow skyjackers, 49-year-old Arthur Gates Barkley was motivated by a complicated grievance against the federal government. In 1963, the World War II veteran had been fired as a truck driver for a bakery, after one of his supervisors accused him of harassment.  (Gates Quotes) One can reach the gates of hell just as easily by short steps as by large  (Gates Quotes) It is always the first and last steps that are the hardest to take. We walk away and try not to turn back, or we stand just outside the gates, terrified to find what’s waiting for us now that we’ve returned. In between, we stumble blindly from one place and life to the next. We try to do the best we can. There are moments like this, however, when we are neither coming nor going, and all we have to do is sit and look back on the life we have made  (Gates Quotes) All obstacles now vanish from my pathway. Doors fly open, gates are lifted and I enter the kingdom of fulfillment, under grace  (Gates Quotes) We salvage what we can, what truly matters to us, even at the gates of despair  (Gates Quotes) Everything in our background has prepared us to know and resist a prison when the gates begin to close around us... But what if there are no cries of anguish to be heard? Who is prepared to take arms against a sea of amusements? To whom do we complain, and when, and in what tone of voice, when serious discourse dissolves into giggles? What is the antidote to a culture’s being drained by laughter?  (Gates Quotes) Hold a book in your hand and you’re a pilgrim at the gates of a new city  (Gates Quotes) Heaven’s gates are not so highly arched as princes’ palaces; they that enter there must go upon their knees  (Gates Quotes) It is easy to go down into hell; night and day, the gates of dark death stand wide; but to climb back again, to retrace one's steps to the upper air - there's the rub, the task  (Gates Quotes) Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it  (Gates Quotes) They're currently sulking, by the way, and comforting themselves by sending abusive e-mails to Bill Gates  (Gates Quotes) But when I got angry, my nerves sought an outlet, and my mouth didn't always guard the gates  (Gates Quotes) To everyone is given the key to heaven; the same key opens the gates of hell  (Gates Quotes)
