“We cannot say anything about the condition of the climbers missing in the avalanche. We are waiting for details.”

“The experienced mountain climber is not intimidated by a mountain -- he is inspired by it. The persistent winner is not discouraged by a problem -- he is challenged by it. Mountains are created to be conquered; adversities are designed to be defeated; problems are sent to be solved. It is better to master one mountain than a thousand foothills.”
William Arthur Ward
“Climbers aim for the summit because it is there. Bungee jumpers dive off the top because they aren't all there.”
Jessica Seigel
“Hasty climbers have sudden falls”
English Proverb
“Some were named by early climbers, some are legend.”
Hanspeter Holzhauser
“It took a year to find Ali, because Palestinian climbers don't really exist except for him.”
Lance Trumbull
“Different kinds of bikers would prefer different routes. Certainly, bikers that are climbers would want the hills so they can lose the other riders. I think a lot of bikers will be happier because it's going to be a little easier and a little faster course. We didn't really have a choice which route we used.”
