look in my sig
also:
- We do not rise to the level of our expectations. We fall to the level of our training.
- That which doesn't kill me, will make me stronger!
- True strength is the flower of Wisdom, but its seed is action.
- Victory is reserved for those who are willing to pay it's price.
- It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.
- Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole body and soul can be a true master. For this reason, mastery demands all of a person.
- Talk is easy - ACTION is difficult. Action is easy - TRUE UNDERSTANDING is difficult!
- When the World is at Peace, a gentleman keeps his Sword by his side.
- The more you sweat in training, the less you will bleed in battle.
- To think, "I will not think" - This, too, is something in one's thoughts. Simply do not think about not thinking at all.
- Ultimately, you must forget about technique. The further you progress, the fewer teachings there are. The Great Path is really NO PATH.
- When you aim for perfection, you discover it's a moving target.
- The more you search for truth outside yourself the farther away it seems to be.

This...is my boomstick!
Death to the Preps!
DDR sucks!
Do not fight in the city, for the people will rise up and pepper you with guerilla fighting.
The fixed fortification is a monument to the stupidity of man!
I want you to (Please refrain from swearing)in' lay me out.
Insult the enemy commander. Make fun of his mother, wife, and kids.
Fire in the hole!
Speak softly and carry a big stick, you will go far.
I enjoy learning, but do not enjoy being taught
You can't fight me alone, you damn rich kids can only shoot your piffling little paintball guns, c'mon, is this what you do? Go to school, have 8+ people surround 1 guy and taunt him? You think I have fear? (Please refrain from swearing) you! You vacous dullards, you don't stand a (Please refrain from swearing)ing chance! You have no unity, you have no organization, you know nothing of the world, you just have cash. Now, if you excuse me, I have to go to... band class.
Some of those are mine, others aren't.

repetitions that's what makes the muscles grow. And that's what divides one from a champion
and one from not being a champion. If you can go through this pain barrier, you may get to
be a champion. If you can't go through, forget it. And that's what most people lack...it's
having the guts...the guts to go in and say 'I'll go through no matter what happens.' It
aches! And if I fall down -- I have no fear of fainting in the gym! I know it could happen.
