On September 30th, 1956, during a drunken argument in a New York City Bar, a man named Thomas Fitzpatrick
claimed he could fly an airplane from New Jersey to New York in under 15 minutes. To prove himself,
Fitzpatrick left the bar, stole an airplane from a New Jersey airfield at 3am, flew without lights or radio completely intoxicated,
and landed the airplane in the street in front of the bar. The owner of the plane was so impressed that he refused to press charges,
and Fitzpatrick was only fined $1000 for his stunt. Two years later, Fitzpatrick got into another drunken argument in which
another bar patron refused to believe his wild story, so he did it again. This time finding himself in prison for 6 months....

Einstein: What I most admire about your art, is your universality.
You don’t say a word, yet the world understands you!
Chaplin: True. But your glory is even greater! The whole world admires you,
even though they don’t understand a word of what you say.
