“I know it's impossible. But I know I'll do it!”

“When I see three oranges, I juggle; when I see two towers, I walk!”

“When the towers again twin-tickle the clouds, I offer to walk again, to be the expression of the builder's collective voice. Together, we will rejoice in an aerial song of victory. I will carry my life across the wire, as your life, as all our lives, past, present, and future -the lives lost, the lives welcomed since.we can overcome.”

“On one side, the mass of a mountain. A life I know.On the other, the universe of the clouds, so full of unknown that it seems empty to us. Too much space.”

“It cannot be done all at once. To overpower vertigo - the keeper of the abyss- one must tame it, cautiously.”

“My destiny no longer has me conquering the highest toowers in the world, but rather the void they protect.This cannot be measured.”

“The rest is usually just an inhuman amount of tenacious work.”
