    Quotes

    I have always liked "quotes", whether about gaming, love, motivation or daily life. I think we learn a lot by reading just a few lines, so I would like to create a thread about quotes. A lot of brilliant minds over here, so let's bring out your favorites quotes, feel free.



    Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.

    Sun Tzu.
    Blackjack will test your soul, your character, and the very fiber of your being.
    Don Schlesinger.
