Always desire to learn something useful.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Never complain and never explain.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
His tenacity is unmatched in my opinion. Incredible how someone could have suffered that long and come back out of prison with such a good heart and positive things to say and do.
