At my funeral, if one said, 'Nick was a generous person,' trust me I won't be doing cartwheels in my coffin. Recognition from people is never and never will be a goal. Some people strive for that respect or honor. Living a life to just reach for the position and status is vanity and sin.

We all start with zero. We all start at the beginning. Do not give up.

To wish for change will change nothing; To make the decision to take action right now will change everything.

Whether your life is happy or not is your own choice.

You do not know what you can achieve until you try.

Defeat happens only to those who refuse to try again.

I don't care what job you get. I care about if you put people down or raise people up.
