Read More
Climbing is definitely very much strength-to-weight ratio. At the same time, I've never dieted or restricted calories. You're just sort of mindful about not getting plump.
Read More
Alex Honnold about Gardening:
Read More
I've never really understood the criticism that climbing is inherently selfish, since it could equally be argued about virtually any other hobby or sport. Is gardening selfish?

Read More
Alfred Lunt about Great:
Read More
There were a great many in vaudeville - people who never quite came through. But they had their place, and they filled it. They kept theatres open.
