“A boy comes to me with a spark of interest, I feed the spark and it becomes a flame. I feed the flame and it becomes a fire. I feed the fire and it becomes a roaring blaze.”
Cus D'Amato

Arthur C. Brooks
“Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.”
Arthur C. Brooks, From Strength to Strength: Finding Success, Happiness, and Deep Purpose in the Second Half of Life

G.K. Chesterton
“All men can be criminals, if tempted; all men can be heroes, if inspired.”
G. K. Chesterton, Heretics: Chesterton's Timeless Defense of Christian Orthodoxy

Kevin Kelly
“The real test of your character is not how much you deal with adversity — although that will teach you much. The real test is how you deal with power. The only cure for power is humility and the admission that your power comes from luck. The small person believes they are superior; the superior person knows they are lucky.”
Kevin Kelly, Excellent Advice for Living: Wisdom I Wish I'd Known Earlier

“What the herd hates most is the one who thinks differently; it is not so much the opinion itself, but the audacity of wanting to think for themselves, something that they do not know how to do. — Arthur Schopenhauer (1788–1860)”
Michael Nehls, The Indoctrinated Brain: How to Successfully Fend Off the Global Attack on Your Mental Freedom
