"There are things you do sometimes, actions that you take by obeying sudden impulses, without stopping for even a fraction of a second to think, and then you spend the rest of your life either lamenting it or thanking yourself for it. They are rare, unique, and perfect moments."

"Why is discipline important? Discipline teaches us to operate by principle rather than desire.

It deposes our lust and permits truth, virtue, and integrity to rule our minds instead."

"The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it."
