If you don't know where you are going, you might not get there.

Maps are for sissies! Real men drive around and claim they are taking the scenic route whilst figuring out where they are.

Right?

Always be grateful -for- what you have, never be satisfied -with- what you have.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Shit happens.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

-Never trust a calm dog.

-Never eat anything bigger than your own head.

-Toast bread until it begins to smoke, then 20 seconds less.

-It is never wise to walk past a chimpanzee while you're wearing a clown suit.

-Adventure is not fun while it's happening.

-If you think you saw a mouse, you did.

-If you must lie, lie to happy people; people are the most credulous when they are the most happy.
