Terry is another matter, but as for your analogy, you are incorrect.
There most certainly are old bold pilots.
The trick in flying isn't the avoidance of bold action, in fact the
reverse is true.
The trick is in knowing when to be bold and when not to be. Those who
know the difference are the ones who become "old, bold pilots".
I didn't invent the saying.
No one said you did. You just used the quote as a declarative sentence
that indicates clearly to the person you posted it to that you
understand the truth of the statement's meaning when in actuality both
the statement and you are incorrect.
So instead of just not understanding the statement is incorrect, you
have compounded the error by using it to make a point that was
incorrect; so you're wrong on two counts.
Good job!
