"We are the estranged orphans of our nations and tribes, and we now bear the weight not of survival of the group but of personal identity."

Identity

"Freedom from the thinking mind is our underlying goal for most of human activity."

Mindfulness

Learning

"I train jiu jitsu because I love jiu jitsu. But I also train knowing that my practice in this art will allow me better practice in any art. If you have learned one thing, you have learned all things, because you have learned how to learn. I can think of no more worthwhile pursuit of education."

Education

"I believe that which you study is only matched in importance by the sincerity with which you approach it."

Education

"Your progress as a Jiu Jitsu practitioner is a direct reflection of the standards you have for yourself."

Sports

"When we honestly take stock of our ability, we are then granted the opportunity to improve our circumstance. Accessing where you stand is the only way to stand somewhere else."

Life

"The more specifically you define your goals the more attainable they become."

Success

"To know our values is to have a foundation on which to build a great life. Our environment and education will play a large part in influencing our formulation of this world view, but is ultimately ourselves that have the final say. We must decide what we value, and then live accordingly. After all, in the eyes of the world we could achieve great success, but if our actions do not coincide with what we ourselves truly deem worthy, we will find no peace."

Philosophy

"I believe the devil exists in those little, seemingly unnoticeable moments when we choose to value our own insecurities over the service of others."
