"The mountains showed me that life, any life, is a miracle. Death has an opposite, but the opposite is not mere living. It is not courage, or faith, or human will. The opposite of death is love. Love is our only weapon. Only love can turn mere life into a miracle, and draw precious meaning from suffering and fear..." Nando Parrado from Miracle in the Andes: 72 Days on the Mountain and My Long Trek Home (2006)
