Hi Nick,
here's a couple nuggets I've heard through the years...
The first time is always an interesting time.
--Seth Blake
It's better to be in control of an out-of-control situation than out of control of an in-control one.
--Dennis McGlynn
It's better to have and not need than to need and not have.
--Ed Trick
"Ho Ka Hey"..The Sioux indians chanted when they charged the US cavalry and General Custer..
It means " It's a good day to die"

Nick, It's Erik here. Not sure If you remember me, I'm from Oregon and I talked to you a few weeks ago reguarding the BR clinic. Anywho, here's a decent nugget my father used to use when I was growing up (slightly adapted for base!):
"The sport of base jumping will always have two seperate believers, the gun-ho and the gun-shy. One focuses on Abilites while the other focuses on limitations."
That's it, catch ya later!

"Every BASE jump is a suicide attempt with a last second change of heart"
"I will not pretend I wasn't petrified.I was.But mixed in with the awful fear was a glorious feeling of excitement.
Most of the really exciting things we do in our lives scare us to death. They wouldn't be exciting if they didn't..."
Taken from a book called "Danny, the champion of the world" written by Roald Dahl.
