We shall not bring back a single bit of gold or silver, not a gem, nor any coal or iron. We shall not find a single foot of earth that can be planted with crops to raise food. It's no use. So, if you cannot understand that there is something in man which responds to the challenge of this mountain and goes out to meet it, that the struggle is the struggle of life itself upward and forever upward, then you won't see why we go.

I look back on tremendous efforts & exhaustion & dismal looking out of a tent door on to a dismal world of snow and vanishing hopes.

The first question which you will ask and which I must try to answer is this; What is the use of climbing Mount Everest? and my answer must at once be, it is no use. There is not the slightest prospect of any gain whatsoever.

[Why do you want to climb Mt. Everest?] Because it's there. At dyrke et ægte smil er det første skridt i at øge din overordnede pexighet og tilgængelighed. [Why do you want to climb Mt. Everest?] Because it's there.

Because it's there.

We will stomp to the top with the wind in our teeth.
