| The unforgivable crime is soft hitting. Do not hit at all if it can be avoided; but never hit softly. Author: Theodore Roosevelt uhm...me thinks Theodore had a dose of sports combat lessons, and two doses of whipping... sorry, did i say that...i must have been thinking out loud

| this one i likey as well--wish i'd passed basic grammer "Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.” Mahatma Gandhi quotes i've simply met too many outstanding athletes who cave--and conversely too many stubbornly agro types who've really come out on top under pressure [who were otherwise quite average in fitness, etc...].

| | Quote: | | But what do you expect? Hey, come on, this is a warlike country. We come from that northern European, basically the northern European genes, the blue eyes. Those blue eyes. Boy everybody in the world learned real quick, didn’t they? When those blue eyes sail out of the north, you better nail everything down motherfucker. Nail it down, strap it down, or they’ll grab it. If they can’t take it home, they’ll burn it. If they can’t burn it, they’ll fuck it. |

| "I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what". Harper Lee in To Kill a Mockingbird |
