Ranulph Fiennes
“There is no bad weather, only inappropriate clothing.”
Ranulph Fiennes

Steve Jobs
“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
Steve Jobs

“The wave does not need to die to become water. She is already water.”
Thich Nhat Hanh, The Heart of the Buddha's Teaching: Transforming Suffering into Peace, Joy, and Liberation

Herman Melville
“and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.”
Herman Melville

Ikkyu
“Studying texts and stiff meditation can make you lose your Original Mind.

Dusk rain on the river, the moon peeking in and out of the clouds;
Elegant beyond words, he chants his songs night after night.”
Ikkyu
