It takes a minute to have a crush on someone;
an hour to like them;

On Being A Warrior

    Out of every 100 men, ten shouldn’t even be there,
    Eighty are just targets,
    Nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle.
    Ah, but the one,
    One is a warrior,
    And he will bring the others back.

    — Heraclitus

    The 4 Soldierly Values: Courage, Competence, Candor, Comittment

"The society of late twentieth century America is perhaps the first in human history where most grown men do not routinely bear arms on their persons and boys are not regularly raised from childhood to learn skill in the use of some kind of weapon, either for community or personal defense - club or spear, broadsword or long bow, rifle or Bowie knife. It also happens to be one of the rudest and crudest societies in history, having jubilantly swept most of the etiquette of speech, table, dress, hospitality, fairness, deference to authority and the relations of male and female and child and elder under the fraying and filthy carpet of politically convenient illusions. With little fear of physical reprisal Americans can be as loud, gross, disrespectful, pushy, and negligent as they please. If more people carried rapiers at their belts, or revolvers on their hips, It is a fair bet you would be able to go to a movie and enjoy he dialogue from the screen without having to endure the small talk, family gossip and assorted bodily noises that many theater audiences these days regularly emit. Today, discourtesy is commonplace precisely because there is no price to pay for it." - Samuel Francis

"Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely - lay your life before him."

That's a piece of advice I need to learn to follow.  I tend to say things before I think.  Not always good.  I'm pretty good at sticking my foot (or both feet!) in my mouth.  Grin

I've done that as well. I find that a sincere and heartfelt apology works wonders.

*chuckle*  I'm not very good at that.  Sometimes you don't know if an apology is wanted (or truly warranted) and then you just feel like more of a jerk.  Eh.

I apologize regardless. If the other person refuses to accept it, it says more about their lack of maturity than anything else. At least I made an effort.

The thirst for equality can express itself either as a desire to draw everyone down to one's level, or to raise oneself and everyone else up.  Friedrich Nietzsche

I try to raise myself and others. I just don't know if I'm being successful or not... Undecided
