Douglas MacArthur

Alan Watts

To have courage for whatever comes in life - everything lies in that.
Saint Teresa of Avila

Whatever fortune brings, don't be afraid of doing things.
Herman Melville

A life without adventure is likely to be unsatisfying, but a life in which adventure is allowed to take whatever form it will is sure to be short.
