Jim Whittaker quotes:

If you're not living a life on the edge you're taking up too much space! ... You learn the most when you're out of your comfort zone!

In dire times of survival it's not uncommon for people to turn to their faith and that was also true for the men on the oil tanker Pendleton, which was cut in half by 60-foot waves during the hurricane.

Being out on the edge, with everything at risk, is where you learn and grow the most.

You learn the most when you're out on the edge.

You can never conquer the mountain. You can only conquer yourself.

You don't really conquer a mountain, you conquer yourself. You overcome sickness & everything else - your pains, aches, fears - to reach the summit.

If you're ever killed mountain climbing, then all that you've worked for is gone
