RIP Warren Miller

[Phillbo 11]

Huge loss. Thank you Warren Miller. I spent many, many years getting my winter stoke on by going to his movies. The official start of winter for a lot of people. Loved the man's quotes.

“I won’t ruin a good story with the absolute truth.”
“Never tell a lie, because you don’t have a good enough memory.”
“Always try everything at least twice.”
“Freedom is located somewhere outside the box.”
“If at first you don’t succeed, failure may be your thing.”
“On the other hand, you have different fingers.”
“One-seventh of your life is spent on Monday.”
“If you don’t have any idea where you’re going, you’ll probably end up there.”
“Freedom is when preparation meets the opportunity you have created.”
“How old would you be if you didn’t know when you were born?”
“Birthdays are good for you – the more you have the longer you live.”
“Don’t take life seriously, because you won’t come out of it alive.”
“Die living.”
“Adventure is the invitation for common people to become uncommon.”
“You can’t get hurt skiing unless you fall.”
“The definition of extreme is to go past your known limits by an unknown amount.”
“The best place in the world to ski is where you’re skiing that day.”

And my favorite:
“If you don’t do it this year, you’ll be one year older when you do.”

I hope he's found endless slopes of bottomless powder.
