" You kids have been nothin' but punks. Sissified. So quick to pick up a gun. Too scared to take an ass whipping. [raises his fists] This is what makes you a man. When I was growing up, this was all the protection we needed. You win some, you lose some. But you live. You live to fight another day."

Mr. Jones "Friday"

The most lost day in life is the day we don't laugh. 4. Six best doctors in the world...:1. The sun,2. Rest,3. Exercise,4. Diet,5. Self-respect 6. Friends. Stick to them at all stages of your life and enjoy a healthy life...If you see the moon, you will see the beauty of God...If you see the sun, you will see the power of God...If you see a mirror, you will see God's best creation. So believe it. We are all tourists, God is our travel agent who has already identified our routes, bookings and destinations... trust him and enjoy life. Life is just a journey! Therefore, live today! Tomorrow may not be.

my favorite quote that motivates me is "nothing is impossible"

"Good or bad, hard to say."

Kind of a longish story explaining it, here is the full story:

There was once a farmer in a village and one day, his horse ran away. So, the villagers came up to him and said, "Oooh! That's bad."

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Good or bad, hard to say."

The next day, the horse returned and brought with it seven wild horses. So, the villagers came up to him and said, "Ah! more horses, that's good."

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Good or bad, hard to say."

A week later, the farmer's son was riding one of the wild horses, was thrown off it and breaks his leg. So, the villagers came up to him and said, "That's terrible luck."

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Good or bad, hard to say."

The next week, the king sent word commanding all able men of age to enlist in the army for the upcoming war against a neighbouring kingdom. They came to the village to look for men to enlist but when they see the farmer's son has a broken leg, they pass him by. Now, the villagers came up to him and said, "That's good luck!"

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Good or bad, hard to say."
