At the top of the mountain we are all snow leopards.
by Hunter S. Thompson
(0 Reviews)

In Hunter S. Thompson's "Kingdom of Fear," the author shares a thought-provoking quote about unity and strength expressed through the imagery of snow leopards at the mountain's peak. This metaphor suggests that regardless of our differences or backgrounds, there is an inherent equality among us when we strive to reach our highest potential. At the top of the mountain, we can transcend individual identities and embrace a shared experience.

Thompson's work often reflects themes of introspection and the complexities of the human experience. By likening people to majestic snow leopards, he emphasizes our innate capabilities and resilience. This perspective encourages readers to explore their personal journeys and recognize the commonalities that bind us together, especially during challenging times in society. The quote encapsulates a message of hope and solidarity in a world often marked by division.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
