He may follow me; and if truth be on his side, I may follow him.

The one who admonishes his brother secretly, he has advised sincerely and has honored him.

Whenever I face an opponent in debate I silently pray – O Lord, help him so that truth may flow from his heart and on his tongue, and so that if truth is on my side.

How strange! You seek guidance, yet you do not tread its path, surely a boat does not sail on land.

You gotta be really careful what you bite off. Don’t bite off more than you can chew. It’s a dangerous world.

You gotta keep the ball off the fat part of the bat.

I live by that. You grind hard so you can play hard. At the end of the day, you put all the work in, and eventually it’ll pay off. It could be in a year, it could be in 30 years. Eventually, your hard work will pay off.

If you go off the road, you’re into somebody’s shop-window or front porch.
