Additional quotes by Edmund Hillary

Some day I’m going to climb Everest.

I am hell-bent for the South Pole — God willing and crevasses permitting.

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.
