View from the Summit Quotes

“As a youngster I was a great dreamer, reading many books of adventure and walking lonely miles with my head in the clouds.”
― Edmund Hillary, View from the Summit: The Remarkable Memoir by the First Person to Conquer Everest

“I have been seriously afraid at times but have used my fear as a stimulating factor rather than allowing it to paralyse me. My abilities have not been outstanding, but I have had sufficient strength and determination to meet my challenges and have usually managed to succeed with them.”
― Edmund Hillary, View from the Summit: The Remarkable Memoir by the First Person to Conquer Everest
