“As
Aristotle said, 'Excellence is a habit.' I would say furthermore that
excellence is made constant through the feeling that comes right after one has
completed a work which he himself finds undeniably awe-inspiring. He only wants
to relax until he's ready to renew such a feeling all over again because to
him, all else has become absolutely trivial.”

Criss Jami, Killosophy
“REMEMBER
YOUR GREATNESS
Before
you were born,
And
were still too tiny for
The
human eye to see,
You
won the race for life
From
among 250 million competitors.
And
yet,
How
fast you have forgotten
Your
strength,
When
your very existence
Is
proof of your greatness.
You
were born a winner,
A
warrior,
One
who defied the odds
By
surviving the most gruesome
Battle
of them all.
And
now that you are a giant,
Why
do you even doubt victory
Against
smaller numbers,
And
wider margins?
The
only walls that exist,
Are
those you have placed in your mind.
And
whatever obstacles you conceive,
Exist
only because you have forgotten
What
you have already
Achieved.

“Courage
to me is doing something daring, no matter how afraid, insecure, intimidated,
alone, unworthy, incapable, ridiculed or whatever other paralyzing emotion you
might feel. Courage is taking action....no matter what. So you're afraid? Be afraid. Be scared silly to the point you're trembling
and nauseous, but do it anyway!”

“Last
night as I was sleeping, I dreamt --
O,
marvelous error --
That
there was a beehive here inside my heart
And
the golden bees were making white combs
And
sweet honey from all my failures.”

You fought, you screamed, and somehow you worked like hell to get out the other
side still intact.”
