All american wars (except the civil war) have been fought with the odds overwhelmingly in favor of the americans. in the history of armed combat such affairs as the mexican and spanish-american wars must be ranked, not as wars at all, but as organized assassinations. in the two world wars, no american faced a bullet until his adversaries had been worn down by years of fighting others.

A problem with school is that you often become what you study. if you study, let say cooking, you become a chef. if you study law, you become an attorney, and a study of auto mechanics makes you mechanics. the mistake in becoming what you study is that, too many people forget to mind their own business. they spend their lives minding someone else's business and making that person rich

It is a great thing to be at your age... you are at a very specific time of age ... an age where you can follow all your dreams. but also at an age when you can change-you can change your dreams, you can change paths. when you start something when you're young, you should not decide 'this is it, this is my way and i will go all the way.' you have the age where you can change. you get experience, and maybe dislike it and go another way. your age is still an age of exploration.
