Quotes of Book: Shadow Divers
~ If an undertaking was easy, someone else already would have done it.~ If you follow in another's footsteps, you miss the problems really worth solving.~ Excellence is born of preparation, dedication, focus, and tenacity; compromise on any of these and you become average.~ Every so often, life presents a great moment of decision, an intersection at which a man must decide to stop or go; a person lives with these decisions forever.~ Examine everything; not all is as it seems or as people tell you.~ It is easiest to live with a decision if it is based on an earnest sense of right and wrong.~ The guy who gets killed is often the guy who got nervous. The guy who doesn't care any more, who has said, 'I'm already dead -- the fact that I live or die is irrelevant and the only thing that matters is the accounting I give of myself,' is the most formidable force in the world.~ The worst possible decision is to give up. book-quote~ If an undertaking was easy, someone els already would have done it.~ If you follow in another's footsteps, you miss the problems really worth solving.~ Excellence is born of preparation, dedication, focus, and tenacity; compromise on any of these and you become average.~ Every so often, life presents a great moment of decision, an intersection at which a man must decide to stop or go; a person lives with these decisions forever.~ Examine everything; not all is as it seems or as people tell you.~ It is easiest to live with a decision if it is based on an earnest sense of right and wrong.~ The guy who gets killed is often the guy who got nervous.
