Infinite striving to be the best is man's duty, it is it's own reward. Everything else is in God's hands.

Hate the sin and love the sinner.

An eye for an eye leaves everybody blind.

First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win.

A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave.

Personally, I hold that a man who deliberately and intelligently takes a pledge and then breaks it, forfeits his manhood.
