Our fate is determined by how far we are prepared to push ourselves to stay alive - the decisions we make to survive. We must do whatever it takes to endure and make it through alive.

I hang out all the time with kids and young scouts and I never meet kids who don't want adventure.

Don't be scared to dream big, and don't be afraid to be close to people. And never give up! It's the tenacious not the talented that win.

Survival is not about being fearless. It's about making a decision, getting on and doing it, because I want to see my kids again, or whatever the reason might be.

Life has taught me to be very cautious of a man with a dream, especially a man who has teetered on the edge of life. It gives a fire and recklessness inside that is hard to quantify.

Make a little time to be quiet by yourself every day and just be.

Many great people over the centuries have depended on their faith- it is a sign of great strength to need Jesus in your life.
