Quote 3 - Chris McCandless

Posted by Mick under: Quotes .

“So many people live unhappy cirumstances 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 piece 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 horizen, for each day to have a new and different sun.”
Chris McCandless (Died in the Alaskan wilderness from starvation)

(Bad person to use a quote from considering how and where he died…but an interesting quote none the less. Check out his wikipedia entry for detailed info.)
