I learned to ski in the Dolomites at the age of five. Ski lifts didn't exist then, so I did everything on foot.

Fame is very heavy. When there are large crowds, I'm unable to handle it.

A 30-year-old rock climber is an old man. At 40, one is in the middle of his high-altitude power. At 50, a crosser of deserts is at his best age. But at 60, each of us is out of the game.

For me, imagination is more important in climbing than muscle or daredevil antics.

I became famous for the fact that I would break many, many limits. People said, 'He does all these crazy things.' But oddly it was a crazy thing only because scientists and climbers said, 'Everest and the 8,000-meter peaks without oxygen - impossible. Messner is becoming sick in his head.'

Before kids, I was really going to the limit. Afterwards, I was approaching the limit but then maybe turning around.

Around half of the top alpinists have died climbing. Of course if I'm careful and turn back more often than the others, I can increase my chances of survival. But if I hadn't been lucky a few times, I wouldn't be here.

I was always at my best when I was learning, when I was curious. When I had yet to see past the next horizon.
