You always get what you always got if you dont make a change.
“This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, somg go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And babe, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up becuase if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”
― Marilyn Monroe

To live a full life you need to laugh everyday, you need to think.. Be with your thoughts everyday and you need to cry, weather it be happy or sad you need to be moved to tears everyday. If you can do those three things that's a full day, that's one heck of a day

That video has my favorite motivation quote i have ever heard, Makes me motivated anytime i hear it.
Also i haven't seen many of your quotes Sarge, But you did give me some great advice
"Welcome aboard, brother! Just keep your head on a swivel. Try not to get yourself in the middle of a sweaty bag of dicks, & you'll do fine." So far your advice has helped me out very much.
Another quote “Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.” -Buddha
That quote by Buddha is one of my favorites, and I apply that reasoning to my life on a regular basis. Not believing in anything without deeply thinking about it has helped me form a much more rational view of the world than I ever would have if I had just listened to what other people “believe.” Or at least I believe that to be the case.
you can chain me.
you can torture me,
you can even distroy this body,
but you will NEVER imprison my mind.
Care about what others think and you will always be their prisoner
-lao tzu

AnonTrue wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us.
Socrates
