"For it is not high you climb or how many times you climb that really matters. What matters is what you do with the rest of your life after you have reached the summit and come back to earth. What you do as you walk up is your achievement. What you do when you come down is your legacy".
I loved your tribute to Sir Edmund Hillary. True! this is the way to achieve immortality. Sir Edmunf Hillary was unique, a king of conquerors, as he has not only achieved the highest physical summit on earth but also conquered the hearts of people; the highest peak where few leaders dare to dwell.
Thanks Shantanu for very informative and aspiring article
