I’ve just always wanted to see a balloon drift off into a cloudless sky. ― M Leighton

“After us they’ll fly in hot air balloons, coat styles will change, perhaps they’ll discover a sixth sense and cultivate it, but life will remain the same, a hard life full of secrets, but happy. And a thousand years from now man will still be sighing, "Oh! Life is so hard!" and will still, like now, be afraid of death and not want to die.”

― Anton Chekhov, Three Sisters: A Translation Of The Play By Anton Chekhov
