Quotes of the day:
"There are only two ways to live your life.
One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as though everything is a miracle. "
-- Albert Einstein
"The Commitment to be a [composer] is nothing less than a
commitment to seek that which is divine" -Bernard Rands
"You've only really been there if you've walked there." -Alpine School motto
"We don't stop hiking because we grow old, we grow old because we stop hiking" -Finis Mitchell
"You cannot stay on the summit forever;
you have to come down again.
So why bother in the first place? Just this:
What is above knows what is below,
but what is below does not know what is above.
One climbs, one sees.
One descends, one sees no longer,
but one has seen.
There is an art of conducting oneself
in the lower regions
by the memory of what one saw higher up.
When one can no longer see, one can at least still know."
--Ren� Daumal
