"I'd heard it all the time, 'Live in the moment.' But if I did that, I'd weigh more than a dump truck. Losing weight wasn't about the moment at all; it was about having faith in the future. It was about knowing there would be another meal in a few hours."
Stephanie Klein

"Courage is doing what you're afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you're scared."

"An excellent plumber is infinitely more admirable than an incompetent philosopher. The society that scorns excellence in plumbing because it is a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exalted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy. Neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water."
John Gardner, Excellence, 1961
