Guys,
Reviewing some important rules to live by, and I realized that some of the most important come from the unlikliest of sources - comic books, comic strips, and the movies. Here's a few:
With great power comes great responsability - Spider-man
We must always protect others, even when they might fear and hate us - X-Men
We must always continue to search for hope - Charles Xavier (X-Men)
Strive always to be the best at what you do, even if what you do best isn't very nice - Wolverine (X-Men)
Criminals (and abusers) are a cowardly, superstitious lot who cannot stand against one brave, well-prepared person - Batman
We must always use our talents for good - Mr. Fantastic (Fantastic Four)
Always battle for Truth, Justice, and the American (human) Way - Superman
It doesn't matter where you came from, as long as you fight for the right cause - Superman
Humankind isn't evil, just misinformed - Charles Xavier (X-Men)
We are the future, not the evildoers. They no longer matter - Magneto (X-Men)
The needs of the many far outweigh the needs of the few. Or the one - Spock of Vulcan (Star Trek)
The needs of the one are just as important as the needs of the many - Amanda, wife of Sarek of Vulcan (Spock's mother) (Star Trek)
Size matters not - Yoda (Star Wars)
Luminous beings are we, not just crude flesh - Yoda (Star Wars)
Once you start down the path of the Dark Side, forever will it control your destiny - Yoda (Star Wars)
There is no death, just the Force - Star Wars
Try not. Do or do not. There is no try - Yoda (Star Wars)
Feel free to add, brothers. A tiny ray of whimsical philosophy for those who need it. Oh, one more:
Hakuna Matata! - Timon and Pumbaa (Lion King)
Peace!
Scot
