All problems become smaller if you don't dodge them, but confront them. Touch a thistle timidly, and it pricks you; grasp it boldly, and its spines crumble.

Strike fast, strike hard, strike often.

There are no extraordinary men... just extraordinary circumstances that ordinary men are forced to deal with.

All problems become smaller if you don't dodge them but confront them.
