Well, let me tell you, if you’re 45, had three children and are post-menopausal, you’re not going to weigh what you did the day you graduated from high school. Get that out of your head. That’s a media-driven ideal that you’re never going to healthfully obtain.

You need to face the pain and the fear and walk through the Grief.

You have to be odd to be number one.

There are many spokes on the wheel of life. First, we’re here to explore new possibilities.

The more things a man is ashamed of, the more respectable he is.

History teaches us that men and nations behave wisely once they have exhausted all other alternatives.

You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do.

Never let the fear of striking out get in your way.

Think like a man of action, act like a man of thought.
