You can't become a decent horseman until you fall off and get up again, a good number of times. There's life in a nutshell.

I hang out all the time with kids and young scouts and I never meet kids who don't want adventure.

The lesson is, the rewards in life don't always go to the biggest, or the bravest, or the smartest. The rewards go to the dogged; and when your going though hell, to the person who just keeps going.

Look, sometimes, no matter how hard you try, sometimes you need a bit of luck.

It's unresolved conflict in my life that I have a lovely family and a risky job.

Survival is not about being fearless. It's about making a decision, getting on and doing it, because I want to see my kids again, or whatever the reason might be.

Exercise helps my back. If I don't exercise, that's when it starts to hurt. The pain is a good motivator to run and exercise.
