True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.

From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life.

Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do.

-- Bruce Lee

Fierce-browed, I coolly defy a thousand pointing fingers; head bowed, I willingly serve as a children's ox.

-- Lu Xun

Either explode in silence, or perish in silence.

-- Lu Xun

A thousand words will not leave so deep an impression as one deed.

-- Henrik Ibsen

From the sublime to the ridiculous is but a step.

-- Napoleon

Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.

-- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
