Never respond to an angry person with a fiery comeback, even if he deserves it...Don't allow his anger to become your anger.
~ Bohdi Sanders
Focus on making yourself better, not on thinking that you are better.
You can't run from who you are. The best you can do is take who are you are and make the best YOU that you can be.
Act with the heart of the warrior.
Conduct yourself in a manner that is worthy of respect and don't worry about what others think.
What is right is the ultimate law and trumps the law of the land.
Face your fears and you will be able to conquer them.
Focus on making yourself better, not thinking you are better.
You can't improve anything if you don't first know what needs to be improved.
There is no such thing as standing still, you either move forward or regress.
For things to be right on the outside, they first have to be right on the inside.
Making a decision to live a life of excellence, and living a life of excellence are two difference things.
Excellence is a way of life.
Doing nothing is also an action, not making a decision is making a decision.
A true friend is someone you can count on no matter what.
Your loyalty to friends and family should have no limit, although it may be expressed in ways that others cannot understand.
All respect is earned, even self-respect.
Your reputation is what others think of you, your character is what you truly are. Reputations can be manipulated, character can only be developed and maintained.
You don't obtain excellence by doing the bare minimum.
Only an honorable victory is a true victory.
Respect is both earned and lost.
The superior man responds, the inferior man reacts.
If your thoughts are not right, your actions won't be right.
Don't seek to be respected by everyone, rather seek to be worthy of being respected by everyone.
Truth is universal. Perception of truth varies.
It is not the opinion of the common man that matters, but the opinion of men for whom you admire and truly respect.
Survival is the foundation of endurance, complete triumph is the endgame.
When you react, you let other control you. When you respond, you are in control.
There is no such thing as a fair fight.
Think for yourself at all times.
Warriors do not lower themselves to the standards of other people, they live independently according to their own standards and code of honor.
You can't do wrong right, but you can do right wrong.
The real truth lies below the surface.
You have to be strong enough to stand up for what you believe, even if you are standing alone.
Self-discipline is the cornerstone of any endeavor.
During times of persistent hardship is when the warrior learns the most about his fortitude.
Don't make the mistake of underestimating your enemies.
