Man on Wire

-Philippe Petit first acquired a dream to walk across the two towers while siting in a french dentist office
-"against the law but not wicked or mean- accomplice 
-"something so beautiful, yet illegal, not hurting anyone. 
-"so much responsibility when walking on a wire. One millimeter slip up and you lose your    life. a lot for a wire. 
-Scary how easy it was for him to inspect the towers and get close enough to draw out plans. 
-Brings in the idea of 9/11. Philippe describes his actions of breaking in as if he were a high jacker trying to commit his act. 
-"live everyday looking at life as a challenge, then you are living on a tight rope.- Phillipe
