Quotes by Ed Caesar (?)

“Marathon runners, by default, must have resilient minds.”
― Ed Caesar, Two Hours: The Quest to Run the Impossible Marathon

“In 1923, George Mallory, the dashing alpinist and writer, was asked by a New York Times reporter why he wanted to climb Mount Everest. He famously replied, “Because it’s there.” The rest of his response is less commonly cited, but more instructive:

“Everest is the highest mountain in the world. It’s existence is a challenge. The answer is instinctive, a part, I suppose, of man’s desire to conquer the universe.”
― Ed Caesar, The Moth and the Mountain
