I've probably earned the right to screw up a few times. I don't want the fear of failure to stop me from doing what I really care about.
Don't just fight in the North or the South. Always imagine every battle in your mind, where everyone is both your enemy and your friend, and all possible events happen simultaneously. That way, nothing will take you by surprise, and everything that happens will be something you've already imagined.
I’m sure the universe is full of intelligent life. It’s just been too intelligent to come here.
