“What makes a hero? Courage, strength, morality, withstanding adversity? Are these the traits that truly show and create a hero? Is the light truly the source of darkness or vice versa? Is the soul a source of hope or despair? Who are these so called heroes and where do they come from? Are their origins in obscurity or in plain sight?”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, Notes from Underground, White Nights, The Dream of a Ridiculous Man, and Selections from The House of the Dead

“Born to lose. Live to win.”
― Lemmy Kilmister, Motorhead: In the Studio

“When a man is in despair, it means that he still believes in something.”
― Dmitri Shostakovich

“Sometimes men pick fights just for something to do-just to feel something like the threat of harm and the possibility of triumph.”
― Jack Donovan, The Way of Men
