Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
The key to immortality is first living a life worth living.
I fear not the man who has practiced a thousands kicks once; but I fear the man who has practiced one kick a thousand times.
A goal is not always something to be reached, it often serves simply to as something to aim at.
If you want to swim jump into the water.
–Bruce Lee
