Epic quotes from this book:

Life is nothing more than moments in time. To achieve greatness, you have to give up those moments. You have to give your life to your goal.


The wars you'll wage, aren't decided when you fight them. They're decided before that, by the extent of your efforts, and the substance of your sacrifices.


Evan Winter might be my new favorite author! The Rage of Dragons has set a new bar, it redefines what a 5 star rating is for me. I might just go back and lower the score on my other 5 star reads.

This book is a surprising source of inspiration.
It was shockingly emotional for me when Tao realized that no amount of training would bring him to his goal. That his trainer lied when he said anything was possible. Tao's response, both in words and in action, showed a level of determination I'd never before seen. When working on a challenging task, pushing myself on a hard run, or lifting heavy weights in the gym, I find myself thinking, "Would Tao quit?"
