Other friends have flown before - On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before." Quoth the raven, "Nevermore.
  -  Edgar Allan Poe, The Raven || "You'll never know if you can fly unless you take the risk of falling." - Nightwing || "Everyone keeps telling me how my story is supposed to go. Nah. I'm-a do my own thing" - Miles Morales || "If you dare nothing,
then when the day is over,
nothing is all you will have gained."
Neil Gaiman, The Graveyard Book
