Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?

&quot;&#039;If fighting is sure to result in victory, then you must fight.&#039; Sun Tzu said that. And I&#039;d say he knows a little bit more about fighting than you do, pal, because he invented it. Then he perfected it so that no living man could best him in the ring of honour. Then he used his fight money to buy two of every animal on earth. And then he herded them onto a boat. And then he beat the crap out of every single one. And from that day forward any time a bunch of animals are together in one place it&#039;s called a zoo!<br /> <br /> <br /> . . . unless it&#039;s a farm!&quot; ~ Soldier (TF2)
