One comes to bless the absolute bareness, feeling that here is a pure beauty of form, a kind of ultimate harmony.

What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy. And joy is, after all, the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money.

The greatest danger in life is not to take the adventure.

- Why do you want to climb Mt. Everest, Sir? - Because it is there.

We don't live to eat and make money. We eat and make money to be able to enjoy life. That is what life means, and that is what life is for.

One must conquer, achieve, get to the top; one must know the end to be convinced that one can win the end - to know there's no dream that mustn't be dared. . .

For the stone from the top for geologists, the knowledge of the limits of endurance for the doctors, but above all for the spirit of adventure to keep alive the soul of man.

To struggle and to understand. Never the last without the first. That is the law.

We will stomp to the top with the wind in our teeth.

Why do we travel to remote locations? To prove our adventurous spirit or to tell stories about incredible things? We do it to be alone amongst friends and to find ourselves in a land without man.

You make this world better by changing your thoughts and by becoming better.

We are born of love, Love is our mother.

I had to find the courage to turn my life around.

My mouth is a womb. My teeth are my children. My tongue is their babysitter.

The intention of each lesson is getting you to recognize what you're doing, kinesthetically. Once you're conscious of it, you then can choose whether to continue doing the same thing or not.

We find animals doing things that we, in our arrogance, used to think was "just human".

All TV shows are basically part of the same storyline.

Follow your dreams and use your natural born talents and skills to make this a better world for tomorrow.

Sure, you can mix the flour, baking soda, salt, shortening, and the whole nine yards, but why wouldn't you just pull out a box of Bisquick?

Nothing, however, can be more arrogant, though nothing is commoner than to assume that of Gods there is only one, and of religions none but the speaker’s.
