Life is like a landscape. You live in the midst of it but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance.

More from Charles Lindbergh
"I have seen the future, and it works."
"We must never lose sight of the fact that we are all human beings, and we all have a responsibility to each other."
"We are facing a grave emergency. We are being drawn into a war that is not our war."
"We must not allow our country to be overrun by other races."
"The Jews are a race apart, and they have always been a problem wherever they have settled in large numbers."
About Charles Lindbergh (1902-1974)
American aviator who completed the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight (Spirit of St. Louis, May 1927) and later led the isolationist America First Committee against US entry into WWII. Closely associated with Amelia Earhart (aviation contemporary). For an intellectual contrast, see Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd US President — FDR's interventionist Lend-Lease policy and 1941 declaration of war ended Lindbergh's America First isolationism; FDR publicly questioned Lindbergh's loyalty in April 1941, leading Lindbergh to resign his Air Corps Reserve commission. The cleanest 'interventionist president vs celebrity-isolationist' pairing in 20th-century US politics.
