There are airmen and there are pilots: the first being part bird whose view from aloft is normal and comfortable, a creature whose brain and muscles frequently originate movements which suggest flight; and then there are pilots who regardless of their airborne time remain earth-loving bipeds forever.

One day the stars will be as familiar to each man as the landmarks, the curves, and the hills on the road that leads to his door, and one day this will be an airborne life.

Then they get caught in a tree; you climb up and bring them down, and untangle the string; you run to get them aloft again.

And if the string snaps, and you've done your job right, the kite will continue to soar in the wind, all by itself.
