“Once the teams were all in place, Timor and the other Chechen with the silenced weapon crawled forward to within 30-40 meters of the sentries. They took them both out with single shots. They were careful to maintain silence, having also tied the orange tourniquet band from the standard Russian medical field kit to the bolt to prevent it from noisily retracting.”
Dodge Billingsley, Fangs of the Lone Wolf: Chechen Tactics in the Russian-Chechen War 1994–2009

“I carried 12 magazines for my AK. Eight of these I carried in a four-pocket combat vest. I put two magazines in each pocket. That was my body armor. I carried an additional magazine on my back, directly covering my heart and another on my side protecting my kidney. I carried six hand grenades strapped across my stomach. So my arsenal was also my flak vest. It wasn’t perfect, but good enough.”
Dodge Billingsley, Fangs of the Lone Wolf: Chechen Tactics in the Russian-Chechen War 1994–2009

“Remember, knowledge is better than wealth, because knowledge protects you, while you have to guard wealth. Wealth decreases if you spend it, but the more you make use of knowledge, the more it increases. What you get through wealth is gone when wealth is gone, but what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you are gone.
...
Those who amass wealth, though alive, are dead to the realities of life, and those who acquire knowledge will live, by virtue of their knowledge and wisdom, even after their death.”
Imam Ali (Peace be upon him)

“I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.

I walked a mile with Sorrow;
And ne’er a word said she;
But, oh! The things I learned from her,
When Sorrow walked with me.”
Robert Browning Hamilton

“Women hate Beta males so much they'll assume $150K+ in student loans to go to college for 4-8 years to qualify for a 40-50 hour per week, soul-crushing job just to avoid marrying one.”
Myron Gaines, Why Women Deserve Less
