Tom   Fletcher
“I've never had a moment when I thought: "Tom, you've made it!", and I don't think I want to, because that feels like you've reached the end; that you've crossed the finish line. But to me there is no end. An achievement is not a finish line; it's a checkpoint on a far greater journey. It's a moment to pause, to take a breath and look back and enjoy what you've experienced and be grateful for it, but then to turn around and look towards the next checkpoint, the next achievement.”
Tom Fletcher

“I've been patient. I decided early on that I'd get where I needed to go if I just kept going. Some moves were intentional and sometimes I put my body on autopilot just to get through things. I enjoyed the views from the bottom and the views from the apex. And sometimes, I've winced at the views from both.

I'm patient like every molecule of water - knowing it will eventually make it to the ocean.”
Darnell Lamont Walker

Stewart Stafford
“Nothing hurls an individual towards their goals faster than the sting of defeat. That's when all the probing post-mortem questions get asked. Victory is the fluffing up and reinforcing of the existing ego.”
Stewart Stafford

Jack Freestone
“If you want to become a writer from scratch and only write what you want to write without comprise or selling out, then it will probably be at least one hundred thousand times more difficult than you had previous imagined to make it. And the irony is, if you do finally make it your fondest memories will be of all those struggling years or decades when you were creating art before you were considered a writer.”
