Being realistic is the quickest path to mediocrity

The things that have been most valuable to me I did not learn in school. Traditional education is based on facts and figures and passing tests - not on a comprehension of the material and its application to your life.

Believing in yourself is the first step to accomplishing any goal. If you think you're going to fail, you probably will.

Danger is very real but fear is a choice.

The only man you will ever get is some fool named Grady who falls asleep in his soup.

Be magic choose and believe that you can do anything you set your mind to believe. We are who we choose to be.

Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away.
