Quotes from the same author
Mountains are not fair or unfair, they are just dangerous.
Reinhold Messner
If you have a high-way on Everest, you don't meet the mountain. If everything is prepared, and you have a guide who is responsible for your security, you cannot meet the mountain. Meeting mountains is only possible if you . . . are out there in self-sufficiency.
Reinhold Messner
I want to solve a climbing problem in the mountains, not in the sporting goods store.
Reinhold Messner

Reinhold Messner
I was in continual agony; I have never in my life been so tired as on the summit of Everest that day. I just sat and sat there, oblivious to everything.
Reinhold Messner
