“I never set out to make myself unpopular; I just say what I think, so I sometimes rub people up the wrong way, particularly people who parade their ideals before them like a banner and use them to hide behind. And I will keep on saying what I think. I am not prepared to abandon my self-determined existence for an ideology or an ideal.” — Reinhold Messner
