I Am A Lucky Man.

I Don't Spend A Lot Of Time Thinking About Dying, But I Like To Think That I've - If It Did Occur - That I Would Die Peacefully And Not Make Too Much Of A Fuss About It.

I Don't Know If I Particularly Want To Be Remembered For Anything. I Personally Do Not Think I'm A Great Gift To The World. I've Been Very Fortunate.

Many People Have Been Getting Too Casual About Climbing Everest. I Forecast A Disaster Many Times.

I Always, I Would Say, Make Sure That In My Presentation I'll Have What I Want To Do. I Try And Make It So Interesting To My Companions That They Want To Go, Too. I Don't Have To Twist Any Arms Or Make - You Know - Any Great Challenges Available.

I Have No Desire To Live Anywhere Else But New Zealand. I've Had The Good Fortune To Travel Widely Around The World, But New Zealand Is Home - And I Like To Be Here. I'm Proud To Be A New Zealander.
