So, preferring death to capture, I accomplished the most astonishing deeds, and which, more then once, showed me that the too great care we take of our bodies is the only obstacle to the sucess of those projects which require rapid decision, and vigorous and determined execution. In reality, when you have once devoted your life to your enterprises, you are no longer the equal of other men, or, rather, other men are no longer your equals, and whosoever has taken this resolution, feels his strength and resources doubled. Alexandre Dumas
About This Quote

I have a saying that I want to say before I die. It is that life is a series of lessons and you must learn from the mistakes you make. If you don’t learn from your mistakes, you can not move on and continue to make more mistakes. After making some bad choices in my life, I learned from those mistakes and moved on with my life.
