There is little hope
There is little hope. In writing a book unless you’re planning for a mortality hoping that is that it will be read after you’re gone.
— from Legacy / The Logbook (Legacy/Epilogue)
In the book
This last one is about what stays in the air after the flight is over — your legacy — and how to leave one worth leaving. It is the only chapter that is really about you reading it after I am gone — and there is little point in writing a book at all unless you are writing partly for after you're gone, hoping it will be read then. Someone once told me to write about what I know, and I can't think what I'd know better than what is inside my own head. — Legacy / The Logbook (Legacy/Epilogue)
