“As readers, we are seldom interested in the fine sentiments of a lesson learnt; we seldom care about the good manners of morals.

“One of the greatest things that ever taught me a super lesson was when I seen a baby come out of my woman's womb. Seeing this war that could end with both lives being lost, or both lives being made, gave me an enlightenment of life itself. It sparked my whole mind to a whole other level of living. And if I never would have seen it, I never would have understood life. I never would have appreciated life.”

“The great lesson in microeconomics is to discriminate between when technology is going to help you and when it's going to kill you. And most people do not get this straight in their heads.

And one day, the people came to Warren and said, "They've invented a new loom that we think will do twice as much work as our old ones."”

“Boxing is a glorious sport to watch and boxers are incredible, heroic athletes, but it's also, to be honest, a stupid game to play. Even the winners can end up with crippling brain damage. In a lot of ways, hustling is the same.

That's the lesson I brought with me to the so-called "legitimate" world.”

But I still think you owe me an archery lesson.”
