• El Dr. Everest se levantó y nos dio una pequeña charla. Principalmente se redujo al hecho de que era otoño, y todo el mundo estaba de vuelta, y aunque eso era una gran cosa, la gente mejor no engreírse o portarse mal o él personalmente nos mataría a todos. En realidad no dijo esas palabras, pero ese era el subtexto.

• Para prepararme para escalar el Everest, corrí mucho por las colinas con una mochila y nadé mucho bajo el agua. Nadaba un par de largos bajo el agua y luego un par por encima. Eso hace que tu cuerpo funcione con oxígeno limitado.

• Everest silences you...when you come down, nothing seems worth saying, nothing at all. You find the nothingness wrapping you up, like a sound. Non-being. You can't keep it up, of course. the world rushes in soon enough. What shuts you up is, I think, the sight you've had of perfection: why speak if you can't manage perfect thoughts, perfect sentences? It feels like a betrayal of what you've been through. But it fades; you accept that certain compromises, closures, are required if you're to continue.

  Salman Rushdie

• An iceberg is water striving to be land; a mountain, especially a Himalaya, especially Everest, is land's attempt to metamorphose into sky; it is grounded in flight, the earth mutated--nearly--into air, and become, in the true sense, exalted. Long before she ever encountered the mountain, Allie was aware of its brooding presence in her soul.

• I wanted to be an explorer, but gradually found the world had been explored and that there was nowhere left, really. Once they climbed Everest in 1953, when I was 10 years old, I thought, 'Well, that's pretty much it now.' But the idea of travelling and exploring and adventure was very strong.

• Start with short stories. After all, if you were taking up rock climbing, you wouldn't start with Mount Everest. So if you're starting fantasy, don't start with a nine-book series.

• Siempre me dejan helado y asombrado los aspirantes a escritores que me piden consejo y admiten, muy alegremente, que "no tienen tiempo para leer". Es como si un tipo que empieza a escalar el Everest dice que no ha tenido tiempo de comprar cuerda ni pitones.

• Meditation is the technique of inner conquest - and that is the real challenge. Those who have any guts should accept the inner challenge. It is easy to reach the moon, it is easy to reach Everest; it is far more difficult to reach your own centre. But the moment you reach it all ecstasy is yours, and forever and forever. You attain to a bliss which cannot be taken away from you.

• Miramos hacia arriba. Durante semanas, durante meses, eso es todo lo que hemos hecho. Mirar hacia arriba. Y ahí está: la cima del Everest. Sólo que ahora es diferente: tan cerca, tan cerca, a poco más de mil pies por encima de nosotros. Ya no es sólo un sueño, un alto sueño en el cielo, sino una cosa real y sólida, una cosa de roca y nieve, que los hombres pueden escalar. Nos preparamos. Vamos a escalarlo. Esta vez, con la ayuda de Dios, escalaremos hasta el final.

• I would also suggest that any aspiring writer begin with short stories. These days, I meet far too many young writers who try to start off with a novel right off, or a trilogy, or even a nine-book series. That's like starting in at rock climbing by tackling Mt. Everest. Short stories help you learn your craft.

• When Reinhold Messner returned from the first solo climb of Everest, he was severely dehydrated, and utterly exhausted; he fell down most of the last part of the descent, and collapsed on the Rongbuk glacier, and he was crawling over it on hands and knees when the woman who was his entire support team reached him; and he looked up at her out of a delirium, and said, “Where are all my friends?
