"If you do what I'm doing, I'll kick your ass"
-Dad and Big Brother.

"Don't be like everyone else here, because everyone else is fine with being where they are. They say they aren't, but they don't want change."

That's what got me where I am today, and brought me out of where I was.

"Be the hero of your own movie. If your life was a movie and it started now - forget about the financial disasters you've had, personal failures, relationship failures - what would the hero of your lifes movie do right now? Do it. We define ourselves far too often by our past failures. We look at our past, and we say 'Well, that's me.' That's not you. You're are this person right now. You're the person who's learned from those failures and you can choose to be the hero of your own movie right now."

"We Can Burn The Earth With Kerosene and a Dream"

"Dream Big, but Dream realistic. I'm not one of those dads who's gonna tell you that you have everything. You have to Make everything for yourself first"

"You have to love yourself before anyone else can love you"

(The first two were from my dad, the last was from a man you know as Cyrus Raines or The Nas, who is a very good friend of mine outside this E-Fed)

"Be a cynical douchebag who hates the world and all its inhabitants."
