I think climbing is this zen-like experience in the sense that you need to focus, work on the pump in your arms, don’t go harder than you need to. But at the same time you need to PUSH AND FIGHT. It’s like yoga on ROOIIDS!! For me I get this primal need out to push against my wall of limits. Like smash the shit out of it. And then go harder, day after day I take on the pressure of climbing, bumpin my music. All I need is good tunes, my shoes and my hands meet the wall.
"It could be something totally different. It could be the amplification of the individual, the multiplication of individual existences. Parallel existences now with the individual no longer restricted by time and space. And the manifestations of this neo-human-type evolution, manifestations could be dramatically counter-intuitive. That’s the interesting part. The old evolution is cold. It’s sterile. It’s efficient, okay? And its manifestations are those social adaptations. You’re talking about parasitism, dominance, morality, okay? War, predation, these would be subject to de-emphasis. These would be subject to de-evolution. The new evolutionary paradigm will give us the human traits of truth, of loyalty, of justice, of freedom. These will be the manifestations of the new evolution. That is what we would hope to see from this. That would be nice."

In the house of sand and fog where belongs the dreamer,
In the house of sand and fog where belongs the knight,
In thehouse of sand and fog where are all the damsels,
Perhaps ‘tis belonging that will not find the light.
