Siente orgullo de ser quien eres… / Feel proud to be who you are…

“Vive de tal manera que nunca te averguences si se divulga por todo el mundo lo que haces o dices -- aunque lo que se divulgue no sea cierto.”

“Live never to be ashamed if anything you do or say is published around the world -- even if what is published is not true.”


Richard Bach (Oak Park, Illinois, 23 de junio de 1936, 75 años). Escritor y piloto de aviación estadounidense, recordado especialmente como autor del libro Juan Salvador Gaviota (Jonathan Livingston Seagull, 1970), que se convirtió en un best-seller mundial en la época y sirvió como argumento de un largometraje dirigido en 1973 por Hall Bartlett.

Richard David Bach (born June 23, 1936) is an American writer. He is widely known as the author of the hugely popular 1970s best-sellers Jonathan Livingston Seagull and Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah, among others. Bach's books espouse his philosophy that our apparent physical limits and mortality are merely appearance. He claims to be a direct descendant of Johann Sebastian Bach. Bach is noted for his love of flying and for his books related to air flight and flying in a metaphorical context. He has pursued flying as a hobby since the age of 17. In late August 2012 Bach was badly injured when on approach to landing at Friday Harbor his aircraft clipped some power lines and crashed upside down in a field.
