If your life is not that of an adventure, of a search into the unknown, then you are living in vain.

Remember the high board at the swimming pool? After days of looking up at it you finally climbed the wet steps to the platform. From there, it was higher than ever.

Climbing a thousand high boards, we demolish fear, and turn into human beings.
