You’ve got to allow your kids brush up against the guardrails of failure without smashing them. The bumps and bruises are what will make them formidable in life. If they never got a bump or a bruise, life’s going to hit them hard and they won't be conditioned for it. 145-1:31:53

Stop lying to yourself. When you stop lying to yourself you can become who you know you should be. When you tell yourself the truth about where you are you can make sure you are in the right place, and if you’re not, you can get yourself on the path to get there. 144-1:35:42

You have to be truthful to yourself. You have to stop rationalizing, stop making excuses, stop telling yourself little watered down assessments of where you're really at. Tell yourself the truth. 144-1:34:49

We lie to ourselves. We don't tell ourselves the way things really are. And when we do that, then we can't fix our problems. If we can't fix our problems we're not going to improve. So we have to be truthful to ourselves. 144-1:34:30

Help yourself become better. Help others become better. And in doing so, help this strange and often hostile world that we live in, make it just a little bit better by getting out there and getting after it. 143-2:22:07

When you've got yourself on a good path, then show someone else the path. Help them off that slippery slope. Help them. Because in another time in another place it could be you that needs help. 143-2:21:36

We can make someone’s life a little bit better. We can make ourselves a little bit better. And in doing so we can make the world, even just a small part of the world, a little bit better. 143-1:28:25

Don't give up. Don't give up. There's going to be some high points. There's going to be some low points. They're going to come. They're going to go. But don't, no matter what, don't give up. 501-2:54:00

Don't try to win a war or capture a hill all by yourself. Your action alone means nothing, or at best, very little. It is when you talk to others and they join with you that your action becomes important. — S.L.A. Marshall, Men Against Fire.142-1:55:55
