If you’re embarking around the world in a hot-air balloon, don’t forget the toilet paper.

I stayed in a really old hotel last night. They sent me a wake-up letter.

A lot of people ask me when I do a stunt, ‚Jackie, are you scared?‘ Of course I’m scared. I’m not Superman.

To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.

When I’m home, I spend Sunday with my husband. If we’re not cooking, we travel around in our camper, stop at fast-food restaurants, and picnic. We love that stuff that will harden your arteries in a hurry.

I spent more time on dark ships in danger zones than any other woman in the world.

While on top of Everest, I looked across the valley towards the great peak Makalu and mentally worked out a route about how it could be climbed.

Go to foreign countries and you will get to know the good things one possesses at home.

Work aside, we come to New York for the possibility of interaction and inspiration.

To walk through the ruined cities of Germany is to feel an actual doubt about the continuity of civilization.

In Paris, you’re as far as possible from the land of pleasant smiles.

If I wished to do something, even if I couldn’t find anyone who wanted to make the effort with me, I would go out solo climbing. I did find solo climbing very challenging and a little frightening.

I have always loved blizzards, if only because of the driving experience – which is definitely an acquired taste.

Death is just life’s next big adventure.

I’m never in the same place for more than, like, three days at a time. Things can change from one minute to the next.

I would wear the blue overalls of the fieldworker and often wore round, rimless glasses known as Mazzawati teaglasses. I had a car, and I wore a chauffeur’s cap with my overalls. The pose of chauffeur was convenient because I could travel under the pretext of driving my master’s car.

Traveling around the world and preaching for over 70 years did not give much time for reflection.

Nothing in life is so exhilarating as to be shot at without result.

The Indians on board said that thence to Cuba was a voyage in their canoes of a day and a half; these being small dug-outs without a sail. Such are their canoes.
