  • Their temperaments and longings had pushed them on a path towards the unknown – never the path of people who wish to pile up a great fortune. Now they wanted money, but only as a means towards a different end. Money would grant them freedom to experiment further.

Quotes

Being the kind of men they were, neither ever said the stunning contrast between their success and Samuel Langley’s full-scale failure just days before made what they had done on their own all the more remarkable. Not incidentally, the Langley project had cost nearly $ 70,000, the greater part of it public money, whereas the brothers’ total expenses for everything from 1900 to 1903, including materials and travel to and from Kitty Hawk, came to a little less than $ 1,000, a sum paid entirely from the modest profits of their bicycle business. McCullough, David. The Wright Brothers (pp. 107-108). Simon & Schuster. Kindle Edition.
