Do you have any favorite quotes? My all time favorite has to be this quote from Jack London: The proper function of man is to LIVE, not to exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
Most of what I can come up with are song lyrics. But something boat-related would be: Only approach something as fast as you're willing to hit it.
Don't Fear Dying, Fear not living. William T. Chambers We are here for a good time not a long time and you never seen a hearse with a trailer hitch. ME
Hanging above my old high school football coaches office door...I'm a firm believer in luck but it seems the harder I try the better luck I have (Keith Nelson from Buckcherry actually mentioned this in a youtube video he did recently. We were teammates. He was a lineman and I was a back). Also hanging in the locker room...'winners never quit and quitters never win'. We were underdogs and won the championship my jr year 'Stay away from negative people, they have a problem for every solution'.
Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and F#^k the prom queen. -Sean Connery in "The Rock"
“I feel sorry for people that don't drink, because when they wake up in the morning, that is the best they are going to feel all day-” ― Frank Sinatra
Very fitting for this day and age... “Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please.” -Mark Twain
