Superhuman Effort Isn't Worth A Damn Unless

I Seemed To Vow To Myself That Some Day I Would Go To The Region Of Ice And Snow And Go On And On Till I Came To One Of The Poles Of The Earth, The End Of The Axis Upon Which This Great Round Ball Turns.

No Person Who Has Not Spent A Period Of His Life In Those 'stark And Sullen Solitudes That Sentinel The Pole' Will Understand Fully What Trees And Flowers, Sun-flecked Turf And Running Streams Mean To The Soul Of A Man

Superhuman Effort Isn't Worth A Damn Unless It Achieves Results.

A Man Must Shape Himself To A New Mark Directly The Old One Goes To Ground.

I Chose Life Over Death For Myself And My Friends... I Believe It Is In Our Nature To Explore, To Reach Out Into The Unknown. The Only True Failure Would Be Not To Explore At All.
