Quotes by Alex Korb (?)

“In mountaineering, if you鈥檙e stuck in a bad situation and you don鈥檛 know the right way out, you just have to pick a direction and go. It doesn鈥檛 have to be the best direction; there may not even be a best direction. You certainly don鈥檛 have enough information to know for sure. So if you start down a path and end up at a cliff, you鈥檒l just have to pick another direction from there. Because guess what? In a dire situation, you can鈥檛 be certain of the right path; what you do know is that if you sit there and do nothing, you鈥檙e screwed.”

“Be as patient and kind with yourself as you would be with a cute little puppy that you鈥檙e trying to house-train. Stressing the puppy out will only make it pee on the floor.”
