Quotes-Dichos "How Far are you going to take this? The question is not how far. The question is, do you posess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed?" - The Boondock Saints (from Mark Twight's book Kiss or Kill) "It's one thing to hold a hammer in your hand, but do you have it in you, can you pound that nail? So many of you line up, but so few cross the line...Talk is talk. Kill is kill." - Henry Rollins, "On the Day" (from Mark Twight's book Kiss or Kill) "I test the power of a will according to the amount of resistance it can offer and the amount of pain and torture it can endure and know how to turn to its own advantage." Freidrich Nietzche - Thus Spoke Zarathustra (from Mark Twight's book Kiss or Kill) |

My Interpretation of the cycle of an athlete The following comes from an interpretation of Mark Twight's book Extreme Alpinism: Climb Light, Fast and High by Mark Twight in its section entitled Apologia: The cycle of an athelete has three phases. In the first phase the budding athelte tries to please his teacher. All of his efforts are directed at making sure he does what his teacher indicates (In effect to please the teacher). The second phase, perhaps the longest one, is the phase where the athlete competes for pier recognition (In effect trying to please himself by winning at competition). In effect he is saying "watch me as I win". The last, and best phase in his athletic journey is when he "stops being a monkey ... gets off the tree" and starts doing it for himself. This third and final phase should be what we all aspire to achieve when learning a new sport. |

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."-ROY BATTY (Rutger Hauer): BLADE RUNNER, Warner Bros., 1982 |
