I love the random quotes! Great tidbits. I just saw one that absolutely busted my gut! I could really relate to it because I play golf also:

The difference between a golfer and a climber is that a golfer goes whack!, "damn!" and a climber goes "damn!", whack!.

This one changed my climbing, and you can apply it to many areas of your life.

I just saw one that made me LMAO! It was Bev Johnson saying to her partner "You just don't see that everyday!" after a body went flying past them on El Capitan. I guess since I just boulder, I won't ever see that!

I was bouldering alone Friday when a couple of kids and a parent passed by. So kid sits and watches for a minute or so. After I fall, he just stares with this deadpan look and says "You look like a gorilla when you do that."

"Dude! You skipped a bolt!"...Glenn(beerandblood) while seconding a climb at Pinnacles National Monument and finding his partner about 35 feet above the last clip.

Fiend...The random quote from Royal Robbins after the second ascent of the Nose ends with a reference to the fastest Nose time being 4:17...I think that needs to be updated.
