“SEAL training was always about proving something. Proving that size didn't matter. Proving that the color of your skin wasn't important. Proving that money didn't make you better. Proving that determination and grit were always more important than talent.”
― William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

“Because being an adult doesn’t automatically make you successful at interacting with other adults, especially when you’re brand-new at it. In fact, a lot of us are really, really bad at it.

― Beth Evans, I Really Didn't Think This Through: Tales from My So-Called Adult Life

“Remember... start each day with a task completed. Find someone to help you through life. Respect everyone. Know that life is not fair and that you will fail often. But if you take some risks, step up when times are toughest, face down the bullies, lift up the downtrodden, and never, ever give up-if you do these things, then you can change your life for the better... and maybe the world!”
