QUOTE
"A true warrior seeks peace, but trains with purpose. As Proverbs says, 'He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.' (Proverbs 16:32, KJV)— so we prepare not out of anger or fear, but with discipline, faith, and a heart of wisdom."
