“The empire fell well before the invasion of the barbarians. It collapsed from the collective softness of its citizens’ minds and the turning of their back on reality.”

Fear dominates most people’s lives. Fear of loss. Fear of failure. Fear of the unknown. Fear of loneliness.

What comes around goes around.

The knife’s edge that separates failure from success in life. That edge is your attitude, which has the power to help shape your reality.

If you’ve put in the work, and know your shit, raise your damn hand!

Its not about the dog in the fight, its about the fight in the dog!

You can’t have a one-size-fits-all mind-set when it comes to effective leadership. You need to tailor a specific approach to every single person on your team in order to get the most out of them.

Never be a minion, always be an owner.

That means you can’t do anything to hurt me.

I love you like a fat kid loves cake.

I’m a trackstar running through life, chasing my dream.

You shouldn’t throw stones if you live in a glass house and if you got a glass jaw, you should watch yo mouth: cause I’ll break yo face.

Mental alchemy you can effect by thinking of any adversity as an opportunity for power.

Fears are a kind of prison that confines you within a limited range of action. The less you fear, the more power you will have and the more fully you will live.

That is the physics that all fearless types discover at some point – an appropriate ratcheting up of self-belief and energy when facing negative or even impossible circumstances.

You can build a lifestyle for yourself that doesn’t need to be fueled by booze and drugs to get things done.

Show No Love , Cause Love Can Get you killed.

I have dual citizenship.

…International education cannot be the work of one country. It is the responsibility and promise of all nations. It calls for free exchange and full collaboration…The knowledge of our citizens is one treasure which grows only when it is shared.

Education is the key to opportunity in our society, and the equality of educational opportunity must be the birthright of every citizen.

Justice requires us to remember that when any citizen denies his fellow, saying, ‘His color is not mine,’ or ‘His beliefs are strange and different,’ in that moment he betrays America, though his forebears created this nation.

Citizenship consists in the service of the country.

Children are like buds in a garden and should be carefully and lovingly nurtured, as they are the future of the nation and the citizens of tomorrow.

I feel like any other Brazilian citizen, I have a lot of happiness in me. I thank God for showing me the path to follow.

When approached right, citizens never fail to shoulder their responsibilities.
