This came to me before my first patrol in Mosul, Iraq in 2003.

"If one must choose a fear to hold on to in this life, choose not the fear of death, for death is itself inevitable. Choose to fear that which steals the life, and makes one's death meaningless and empty; choose to fear mediocrity."

 Along the same train of thought:

   "What are you prepared to do?" -Malone (Sean Connery) "The Untouchables" 1987

Big List of Tex's GUNS

From Herman Mellville:

Let us speak, though we show all our faults and weaknesses, - for it is a sign of strength to be weak, to know it, and out with it - not in a set way and ostentatiously, though, but incidentally and without premeditation.
