Bergsteiger / Climber Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Bergsteiger / Climber:

If people see me giving back to the military, they'll hopefully follow suit and be good to these guys who have done so much. I'm not Lance Armstrong or Tiger Woods - I'm just an old, gray-beard mountain climber, but I'm hoping to inspire people to follow my way. Conrad Anker

There's a lot of mountain climbers trapped inside of bodies of people behind the counter at Kinko's.

Henry Rollins

I don't regard myself as a cracking good climber. I'm just strong in the back. I have a lot of enthusiasm, and I'm good on ice.

Edmund Hillary

There is something addictive in space that makes you want to go back - like the mountain climbers who want to go back to the Himalayas although their fingers were cut by frostbite.

Yi So-Yeon

In climbing, sponsors typically support an athlete but provide very little direction, giving the climber free rein to follow his or her passion toward whatever is inspiring. It's a wonderful freedom, in many ways similar to that of an artist who simply lives his life and creates whatever moves him.

Alex Honnold

There are three things in life I really don't like: Rice pudding. Social climbers - you know, hang-ons! And the photo shoot!

Ivana Trump

I explained I wanted to descend as quickly as possible to camp IV in order to warm myself and gather a supply of hot drink and oxygen in the event I might need to go back up the mountain to assist descending climbers.

Anatoli Boukreev

There's only one way to gain mountain sense, and that's to be in the mountains a lot. Unfortunately, when you're a young climber, you have none. You're out there, and your risk level is high.

Alex Lowe

My brother Bill, who is a year older, is a climber, and when I was in the seventh grade, he taught me how to rappel off the frozen waterfall in our backyard.

Ann Bancroft

I've definitely got lists of things I'd love to accomplish as a climber. But let's face it: The world's full of climbers, and the realm of unexplored, unclimbed peaks is shrinking rapidly.

Alex Lowe

The best climber in the world is the one that has the most fun.

Alex Lowe

I wrote a great deal of a novel, 'Winter's Tale,' on the roof of a Brooklyn Heights tenement on Henry Street. I was a technical climber, and now and then I would put down my manuscript and get up to walk along parapets and climb walls and chimneys.

Mark Helprin

If people see me giving back to the military, they'll hopefully follow suit and be good to these guys who have done so much. I'm not Lance Armstrong or Tiger Woods - I'm just an old, gray-beard mountain climber, but I'm hoping to inspire people to follow my way.

Conrad Anker

There are many questions, but I cannot answer because I'm not a businessman, I am a climber.

Anatoli Boukreev

Free soloing is almost as old as climbing itself, with roots in the 19th century. Climbers are continuing to push the boundaries. There are certainly better technical climbers than me. But if I have a particular gift, it's a mental one - the ability to keep it together where others might freak out.

Alex Honnold

I see myself as a climber and an activist.

Alain Robert

I think climbing is less a sport and more a hobby, and as such, I think everybody's a beginning climber.

Alex Lowe

There are two kinds of climbers: those who climb because their heart sings when they're in the mountains, and all the rest.

Alex Lowe

I said to Scott that the ascent seemed to be going slowly and that I was concerned descending climbers could possibly run out of oxygen before their return to camp IV.

Anatoli Boukreev

When I was a teenager, I did a lot of pull-ups and push-ups. Every night before bed, I'd do 150 - in sets of 30 or so. Looking back on it now, I'm not totally sure that's the best way to improve as a climber. But it did make me a lot better at doing pull-ups and push-ups.

Alex Honnold

Like solo sailors venturing into the Southern Ocean, climbers are seduced by risk. The desire to push to a summit or scale a rock face is so strong that they consciously or subconsciously minimize safety precautions drilled into their brains.

Charles Duhigg

Save for a few people in my life, every close male relationship that I have, they're all warriors, whether they're SEALs, competitive martial artists, or professional mountain climbers. They have a certain code.
