“Make sure that your goals are realistic and achievable. Unattainable goals can leave you feeling negative and demotivated. Achievable goals will serve as a conduit that drives you forward to achieve even more.”
― Cheska Anderson, The Power of Living in the Present Tense: The Journey of Letting Go

“Self-defense is when you didn't help develop the conflict, but violence was aimed at you anyway. An easy way to say it, but one many people fuck up the execution of, is: Self-defense is after you've done everything in your power to avoid it, the guy still attacked you and you did what you had to do to stop him.”
― Marc MacYoung, Pool Cues, Beer Bottles, and Baseball Bats: Animal's Guide to Improvised Weapons for Self-Defense and Survival

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.”
― Bernard M. Baruch

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
― Steve Jobs
