The only difference between ordeal and adventure is attitude
What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above
Take care of nature and nature will take care of you
The safest way to avoid danger is not to be there
We will never be too old for this shit
If you look for ice you will find ice!
Four Reasons for failure:
1) Unwillingness to take risks
2) Hesitation
3) Self doubt
4) Thinking too much

How would you feel if you lived on an island populated apart from yourself, exclusively by retarded, malicious, chimps? Well that's how a Bruise Brother feels all the time. Don't laugh you are one of those retarded, malicious chimps.
If you like an exercise, chances are you're doing it wrong.

A view on aging:
The
new shape of death should be compared to a seagull’s. A seagull’s hormones
don't drop with age. We used to think that seagulls lived maybe ten, twenty,
thirty years. Now we've got seagulls that outlive the scientists that follow
them; their little radio signals are still flickering when the scientists pass
away. And physically, that old seagull flies 100 percent like the young seagull.
You can't imagine God creating a seagull any other way, because they have to
pick up fish from the ocean. In veterinary medicine, you don't see a seagull
with a stroke, where one of his wings works and the other doesn't. You don't
have a seagull with arthritis. It doesn't happen. They are in perfect health,
until the day when suddenly the life span stops and the old seagull drops in the
ocean and dies. And that’s exactly what I want. I want to be a seagull. I
don't care when I die. I could be 60, 70I could be 200. But I want to be a
seagull.”
