I feel like I'm climbing as well, if not better, than ever.

Adversity is the source of our deepest growth and greatest blessings; embrace it, dare to seek it.

Everything happens for a reason, and part of that beauty of life is that we're not allowed to know those reasons for certain.

May your boulders be your blessings. May you be able to embrace them. And may you find what's extraordinary in yourself.

It's me. I chose this. I chose all of this — this rock has been waiting for me my entire life. I’ve been moving towards it my whole life.

When we find inspiration, we need to take action for ourselves and for our communities. Even if it means making a hard choice, or cutting out something and leaving it in your past.

I kind of entered a flow state. I've been there before while climbing. You are not thinking ahead. You are just thinking about what is in front of you each second.

You'll never find your limits until you've gone too far.

What you're looking at there is my arm, going into the rock... and there it is, stuck. It's been without circulation for twenty-four hours. It's pretty well gone.

I stepped out of my grave and into my life again.

Saying farewell is also a bold and powerful beginning.

When you are loved, you can do anything in creation.

We can still find joy in the midst of the storm.

Embrace and fall in love with the original version that God made you in.

Life wants you to know yourself, be yourself and love yourself.

You cannot achieve environmental security and human development without addressing the basic issues of health and nutrition.

The most deeply compelled action is also the freest action. By that I mean, no part of you is outside the action.

I'm really quite exhausted at the moment, but you never know, you are always surprised at what you can find sometimes, and maybe I will find something deep within to find the desire to swim fast

I think when you're younger you have a more black-and-white view of things. You're more exclusively dedicated.

Everyone should keep someone else's diary.

Creativity is the process of bringing something new into being.
