Colin Mortlock

Colin Mortlock - rock climber, teacher, outdoors enthusiast, writer, author of The Adventure Alternative (1984) and Beyond Adventure (2001), inventor of the climbing wall. Can this be the only photo of him on the World Wide Web?

No human being is more or less important than any other human being.

No human being is more or less important than anything else in Nature. For human beings to regard themselves as in anyway superior to anything else in Nature is to take a stance of arrogance rather than of humility.

From Beyond Adventure.
