"There are many questions, but I cannot answer because I'm not a businessman, I am a climber."
Question
"This year my role is clear: I am a coach, a coach to sportsmen."
Coach
"Concerned that others were not coming onto the summit and because I had no radio link to those below me, I began to wonder if there were difficulties down the mountain. I made the decision to descend."
Decision-Making
"I respect Everest very much."
Respect
"I am not sure the others are as committed as Rob Hall and Scott Fischer. I think there is more business now, and I know it will be impossible to stop this Everest business."
Business
"I want this book to be facts, to be important, to be history."
History
"I think that people ran out of oxygen and don't really know what happened up there, maybe some of them just made things up because they weren't sure what had happened."
People
"A review of summit day photographs will show that I was clothed in the latest, highest quality, high altitude gear, comparable, if not better, than that worn by the other members of our expedition."
Quality
"I don't know what being an Everest guide means. I am a coach, not a guide."
Being
"I explained I wanted to descend as quickly as possible to camp IV in order to warm myself and gather a supply of hot drink and oxygen in the event I might need to go back up the mountain to assist descending climbers."
