Summiting

Random quote of the day:

“You cannot always stay on the summits. You have to come down again… So what’s the point? Only this: what is above knows what is below, what is below does not know what is above. While climbing, take note of all the difficulties along your path. During the descent, you will no longer see them, but you will know that they are there if you have observed carefully.”

—René Daumal, “The Art of Climbing Mountains,” Mount Analogue
