Tell me what a man finds sexually attractive and I will tell you his entire philosophy of life. Show me the woman he sleeps with and I will tell you his valuation of himself….. The man who is proudly certain of his own value will want the highest type of woman he can find, the woman he admires, the strongest, the hardest to conquer, because only the possession of a heroine will give him the sense of an achievement, not the possession of a brainless slut.
– Ayn Rand
He who learns but does not think, is lost! He who thinks but does not learn is in great danger.

Without love, we are birds with broken wings.
Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you’ll have good manners, no matter what fork you use.
– Emily Post
When in doubt, empty the magazine.
Try to look unimportant, because the bad guys may be low on ammo.
The important things are always simple.
The simple things are always hard.
The easy way is always mined.

We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
