The airships and the aeroplanes wait till the
wind is still before they try to soar above to show their worth and skill; they
do not like the laughing breeze that sweeps o’er hill and dale, and so unless the wind subsides they will not try to sail. When
sailors real go out to sail they want a sailing breeze, but sailors of the
aeroships say, “just excuse us, please. We want to sail, indeed we do, and leave
the earth behind, but when we sail we do not want to be propelled by wind.” It seems
to us the geniuses take methods far the worst; they ought to find a way to stop
the wind from blowing first.
