More Mountaineering Quotes...

"The mountains have rules, they are harsh rules, but they are there, and if you keep to them you are safe. A mountain is not like men. A mountain is sincere. The weapons to conquer it exist inside you, inside your soul." - Walter Bonatti

"Pain is only weakness leaving the body." - Tom Muccia

"The summit is just a halfway point." - Ed Viesturs

"The next time you curse the fact that it's Monday, just think of it as proof that you made it through another weekend without killing yourself by doing something stupid." — Phil Garding

Referring to the dangers of mountaineering I propose the following Latin quote:

"Propriam vitam vive quoniam propria morte moriturus!"

which translates into: "Live your own life, because you will die your own death!"
