“Beware: open-mindedness will often say, 'Everything is permissible except a sharp opinion.”
― Criss Jami, Killosophy

“Every great warrior must learn to endure and overcome the adversities of life.”
― Lailah Gifty Akita, Pearls of Wisdom: Great mind

“Always attack. Even in defense, attack. The attacking arm possesses the
initiative and thus commands the action. To attack makes men brave; to defend
makes them timorous.”
― Steven Pressfield, The Virtues of War

“Pride should be reserved for something you achieve or obtain on your own, not something that happens by accident of birth. Being Irish isn't a skill... it's a fucking genetic accident. You wouldn't say I'm proud to be 5'11"; I'm proud to have a pre-disposition for colon cancer.”
― George Carlin
