Quotes from 'Into the Wild'

'Into the Wild' has some spell binding quotes which influenced me heavily.

"I'm going to paraphrase Thoreau here... rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness... give me truth."

" ...And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind death stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head. "

"If we admit that human life can be ruled by reason, then all possibility of life is destroyed. "

"The core of mans' spirit comes from new experiences. "

"When you want something in life, you just gotta reach out and grab it. "

And finally, "Happiness is real only when shared."

Truly, mindblowing!!
