“No woman has ever stepped on Little America — and we have found it to be the most silent and peaceful place in the world.”

Richard Evelyn Byrd

As quoted in The Oakland Tribune (26 November 1955)

“Solitude is greater than I anticipated. My sense of values is changing, and many things which before were in solution in my mind now seem to be crystallizing. I am better able to tell what in the world is wheat for me and what is chaff. In fact, my definition of success itself is changing.”
