After that, I came back every year. Everyone said, 'Well, when you retire you can move there.' But I said, 'Why should I live my whole life where I don't want to be.

Standing for truth is everything. Truth is power. Don't ever forget that.
We all can be only who we are, no more, no less.
Are we our bodies? Is a small person less than a big person, then? If we were our bodies, then when we lost an arm, or a leg, would we be less, would we begin to fade from existence? No. We are the same person.We are not our bodies; we are our thoughts. As they form, they define who we are, and create the reality of our existence.
To exist in this vast universe for a speck of time is the great gift of life. Our tiny sliver of time is our gift of life. It is our only life. The universe will go on, indifferent to our brief existence, but while we are here we touch not just part of that vastness, but also the lives around us. Life is the gift each of us has been given. Each life is our own and no one else's. It is precious beyond all counting. It is the greatest value we can have. Cherish it for what it truly is..... Your life is yours alone. Rise up and live it.
If something is wrong, it matters not if a thousand men are for it; you must still oppose it. If something is just, no amount of popular outcry should stay you from your course.
But in the end, we can't live our lives by 'what if' and 'if only'. We can only do the best we can to the best of our ability based on what we know. That's why the truth is so important.
If the road is easy, you're likely going the wrong way.
Knowledge is a destination. Truth, the journey.
Once you place that crown of liar on your head, you can take it off again, but it leaves a stain for all time.
Knowledge is a weapon. I intend to be formidably armed.
Your life is yours and yours alone. Rise up and live it.
