About This Quote
The chaos doesn't end, you kinda' just become the calm. This quote is from a book called "The Chaos" by Josh Waitzkin. The book is a memoir about a chess prodigy who won the world championship at age 16. My favorite quotes from the book were: "Being calm is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Being calm in the face of chaos makes you powerful." "If you can take a punch, you can take anything." My favorite part of this quote was that after being punched in the face by a man who was trying to get into his car, Josh said that he had been hit with a "weak jab". That's when I realized that being calm is not being weak.
