I am a coach, not a guide.  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) I told them, you can succeed - it’s not likely the first time, maybe 25 per cent, but you CAN succeed. You can also die. By April 16 they had already been to camp III, well ahead of most teams  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) I am not sure the others are as committed as Rob Hall and Scott Fischer. I think there is more business now, and I know it will be impossible to stop this Everest business  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) I don’t know what being an Everest guide means. I am a coach, not a guide  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) I want this book to be facts, to be important, to be history  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) I said to Scott that the ascent seemed to be going slowly and that I was concerned descending climbers could possibly run out of oxygen before their return to camp IV  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) Climbing is what I do  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) This year my role is clear: I am a coach, a coach to sportsmen  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) Mountains are cathedrals: grand and pure, the houses of my religion. I go to them as humans go to worship... From their lofty summits, I view my past, dream of the future, and with unusual acuity I am allowed to experience the present moment. My strength renewed, my vision cleared, in the mountains I celebrate creation. On each journey I am reborn  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) How could the adventure seeker of today find satisfaction with the level of performance that was a standard set more than 40 years ago?  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) Big mountains are a completely different world: snow, ice, rocks, sky, and thin air. You cannot conquer them, only rise to their height for a short time; and for that they demand a great deal. The struggle is not with the enemy, or a competitor like in sports, but with yourself, with the feelings of weakness and inadequacy. That struggle appeals to me. It is why I became a mountaineer  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) Mountains have the power to call us into their realms and there, left forever, are our friends whose great souls were longing for the heights. Do not forget the mountaineers who have not returned from the summits  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) Concerned that others were not coming onto the summit and because I had no radio link to those below me, I began to wonder if there were difficulties down the mountain. I made the decision to descend  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) Mountains are not stadiums where I satisfy my ambition to achieve, they are the cathedrals where I practice my religion  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) There are many questions, but I cannot answer because I’m not a businessman, I am a climber  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) People respected my experience, they hire me, they pay me what I am worth to coach their team  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) I think that people ran out of oxygen and don’t really know what happened up there, maybe some of them just made things up because they weren’t sure what had happened  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) I offer my expertise and experience for hire in order to help a group of people reach the summit  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes) A review of summit day photographs will show that I was clothed in the latest, highest quality, high altitude gear, comparable, if not better, than that worn by the other members of our expedition  (Anatoli Boukreev Quotes)
