Tom Hornbein Quotes:
Ocupation: Mountaineer
Life: b. November 6, 1930
Birthday: November 6
Just a rock, a dome of snow, the deep blue sky, and a hunk of orange-painted metal from which a shredded American flag cracked in the wind. Nothing more. Except two tiny figures walking together those last few feet to the top of the Earth.
