Impatience is a hindrance. As with all things if you attempt to take shortcuts, the final destination will rarely be as good and may even be attainable.

It is our duty to ensure we have a peace worth fighting for.

Revenge is self-defeating. It will eat away you until there is nothing left.

In order to know your enemy, you must become your enemy.

I know not how to defeat others, I only know how to win over myself. The real and most dangerous opponents we face in life are fear, anger, confusion, doubt and despair. If we overcome those enemies who attack from within , we can attain a sure victory over any attack from without.

The impossible becomes possible if only your mind believes it.
