"Such, gentlemen, is my secret. It is simple, and, like most simple things, it cannot fail to succeed. The dilation and contraction of the gas in the balloon is my means of locomotion, which calls for neither cumbersome wings, nor any other mechanical motor.

Jules Verne's classic "Five Weeks in a Balloon" originally published in 1863. A true literary gem.
