    The best ab exercise is 5 sets of “Stop eating so much crap.”

    If you can dream it, you can do it. Walt Disney

    Thinking about going to the gym burns between 0 and 0 calories.

    Do it for yourself; nobody else cares as much.

    It is far better to be exhausted from success than to be rested from failure.

    “I sit beside the fire and think
    Of all that I have seen
    Of meadow flowers and butterflies
    In summers that have been

    Of yellow leaves and gossamer
    In autumns that there were
    With morning mist and silver sun
    And wind upon my hair

    I sit beside the fire and think
    Of how the world will be
    When winter comes without a spring
    That I shall ever see

    For still there are so many things
    That I have never seen
    In every wood in every spring
    There is a different green

    I sit beside the fire and think
    Of people long ago
    And people that will see a world
    That I shall never know

    But all the while I sit and think
    Of times there were before
    I listen for returning feet
    And voices at the door”
    ― J.R.R. Tolkien

    It isn't a quote, but it is my favorite poem. It reminds me to live my life as best I can and do all I can because there will be a time when I pass and I won't have the chance to do that anymore. Got one chance in life!

    This is great , I have it hanging in my office and when I start to feel sorry for myself I give it a read and figure I'll just hang around and keep trying so I can piss everybody off. B)

    It's not about what your body looks like; it's about what your body can do.
