I like the motto of Mountain Gazette.
When in doubt, go higher.
It fits with my personal predilection, and also fits quite well with this passage I just underlined in Curtis Cate's Friedrich Neitzsche:
"It was one more deplorable example of the 'anthropocentric fallacy': the tendency to view natural phenomena from a short-sighted, narrowly human rather than from a cosmic perspective."
The mountaineers and our best philosophers share a common understanding. When in doubt, go higher.
