In times of crisis, we often discover our true strength and resilience.

I’ve been told I couldn’t do it a billion times in the past few weeks but I’m so happy I’ve done the two-sport thing and proved you can do amazing things. I’m glad I’m standing here as a role model showing people you can achieve these things if you put the hard work in.

The true strength of the human intellect lies not in seeing what is immediately before us, but in anticipating what comes next.

The true strength of rulers and empires lies not in armies or emotions, but in the belief of men that they are inflexibly open and truthful and legal. As soon as a government departs from that standard it ceases to be anything more than ‘the gang in possession,’ and its days are numbered.
