“You’d think, after preparing for years, knowing the way things would end for over a decade, the big picture if not the details, that it would hurt a little less when it happened, that it might even be a relief. It doesn’t, and it wasn’t. Sometimes it feels like it hurts more every single day.”
― Taylor Fitzpatrick, Thrown Off the Ice

“Those who see what lies at the top of aspiration are too broken to warn climbers. The winds there stuff your voice back in your throat. Those lucky enough to make it back down, who try to offer caution to passing climbers, are laughed at. I laughed at them too. Failures, I called them. Not strong enough to take it. Too weak for the pressure. But now I see the enormous cunning of this mountain. On the top is pain, at the bottom is shame and the whole climb is suffering.”
― Kanan Gill, Acts of God
