American spiritual writer (born 1936)
Richard Bach (born 23 June 1936) is an American writer, widely known as the author of some of the 1970s' biggest sellers, including Jonathan Livingston Seagull (1970) and Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah (1977). Most of Bach's books have been semi-autobiographical, using actual or fictionalized events from his life to illustrate his philosophy, that our apparent physical limits and mortality are merely appearance.

Vardığın yer orası değil. Onun çok ötesindesin. Ama geldiğinde inandığın yer orası ve bunda sakınca yok. Seni doğru okuyorum değil mi, sevgili ölümlü? Her zaman içinde bulunan, sana uçma fantezini yaşatan şu mavi tüylü kanatların sahibi olduğunun farkına yeni vardın. Bir mil yüksekliğindeki bir uçurumun kenarında duruyorsun, güven duyarak öne doğru eğiliyorsun, kanatlar açılıyor, denge durumundan çıkarken o konuma havada geleceğini umuyorsun. Öyle mi?

We think, sometimes, there's not a dragon left. Not one brave knight, not a single princess gliding through secret forests, enchanting deer and butterflies with her smile. What a pleasure to be wrong. Princesses, knights, enchantments and dragons, mystery and adventure ...not only are they here-and-now, they're all that ever lived on earth! Our century, they've changed clothes, of course. Dragons wear government-costumes, today, and failure-suits and disaster-outfits. Society's demons screech, whirl down on us should we lift our eyes from the ground, dare we turn right at corners we've been told to turn left. So crafty have appearances become that princesses and knights can be hidden from each other, can be hidden from themselves.
