"The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering."
"Take things as they are. Punch when you have to punch. Kick when you have to kick."
"If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you'll never get it done."

"A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer."
"Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do."
"A good teacher protects his pupils from his own influence."
"The meaning of life is that it is to be lived, and it is not to be traded and conceptualized and squeezed into a patter of systems."
"Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one."
"Don't fear failure. Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts, it is glorious even to fail."
