  Twitter post from Jun 12, 2016

• Just do right. Right may not be expedient, it may not be profitable, but it will satisfy your soul. It brings you the kind of protection that bodyguards can’t give you. So try to live your life in a way that you will not regret years of useless virtue and inertia and timidity.
  Take up the battle. Take it up.
  It’s yours. This is your life.
  This is your world.
