Most Of The Damage We

The More I Make The More I Can Give Away.

I Live For The Moment. I'm Basically A Buddhist-type Person. I'm Just Here Right Now, And I Don't Think About What's Going To Happen A Hundred Years From Now. I Try To Concentrate On What's Going On Right Now. But I'm Really Trying To Run This Company Like It Is Going To Be Here A Hundred Years From Now. That's What's Important.

We Took Special Pride In The Fact That Climbing Rocks And Icefalls Had No Economic Value In Society...we Were Like A Wild Species Living In The Edges Of An Ecosystem - Adaptable, Resilient And Tough.

I've Always Thought Of Myself As An 80 Percenter. I Like To Throw Myself Passionately Into A Sport Or Activity Until I Reach About An 80 Percent Proficiency Level. To Go Beyond That Requires An Obsession That Doesn't Appeal To Me. Once I Reach 80 Percent Level I Like To Go Off And Do Something Totally Different; That Probably Explains The Diversity Of The Patagonia Product Like - And Why Our Versatile, Multifaceted Clothes Are The Most Successful.

I Drive Old Cars, All My Patagonia Clothes Are Years And Years Old, I Hardly Have Anything New. I Try To Lead A Very Simple Life. I Am Not A Consumer Of Anything. And I Much Prefer Sleeping On Somebody's Floor Than In A Motel Room.
