“The most dangerous man on earth is the man who has reckoned with his own death. All men die; few men ever really live.”

If we can reawaken that fierce quality in a man, hook it up to a higher purpose, release the warrior within, then the boy can grow up and become truly masculine.

A man’s calling is written on his true heart, and he discovers it when he enters the frontier of his deep desires.
