The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.  It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.

So the king of Israel answered and said, "Tell him, Let not the one who puts on his armor boast like the one who takes it off."

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.

2 Timothy 4

All good is hard. All evil is easy. Dying, losing, cheating, and mediocrity is easy. Stay away from easy.

Energy and persistence conquer all things.

Anger is never without Reason, but seldom with a good One.

All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.

When anger rises, think of the consequences.

At 20 years of age the will reigns, at 30 the wit, and 40 the judgement.

To know is not enough...you must do.

To will is not enough...you must apply.

Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

Sir Winston Churchill
Speech, 1941 Harrow School
British Politican (1874 - 1965)

Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in getting up every time we do.

The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come.  When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin.  When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come.  Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved.

Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

I found one day in school a boy of medium size, ill-treating a smaller boy.I expostulated, but he replied: "The bigs hit me, so I hit the babies; that's fair." In these words he epitomized the history of the human race.

Never forget what a man says to you when he is angry

One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half.

Sir Winston Churchill
British politician (1874 - 1965)

Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death.
