So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
Jon Krakauer (b.1954)
Couod be extremelly helpful to know the chapter number. I prefer to read both English and Russian versions in parallel.
ReplyDeletePlus, for a dyslectic like myself it is beyond possible to listern to voice AND music at THE SAME TIME. The background effect is not being formed as my brain is unable to stop hearing sounds by choice. That sound which could be just a background for many, simply acts as a sensual torture. I appreciate that could be a deliberate choice to add music and the visuals.
