“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero

“History with its flickering lamp stumbles along the trail of the past, trying to reconstruct its scenes, to revive its echoes, and kindle with pale gleams the passion of former days. What is the worth of all this? The only guide to a man is his conscience; the only shield to his memory is the rectitude and sincerity of his actions. It is very imprudent to walk through life without this shield, because we are so often mocked by the failure of our hopes and the upsetting of our calculations; but with this shield, however the fates may play, we march always in the ranks of honor.”
― Winston S. Churchill

“Even choosing to do nothing is still making a choice.”
― Joshua Medcalf, Burn Your Goals: The Counter Cultural Approach to Achieving your Greatest Potential

“We encourage you: Take off the training wheels. Focus on true mental toughness. Focus on commitments and controllables, you can’t control the results anyway. Love people. Serve people. Provide value. Burn your goals. Fall in love with the process of becoming great.”
― Joshua Medcalf, Burn Your Goals: The Counter Cultural Approach to Achieving Your Greatest Potential
