My Favorite Inspirational Quote, Phrase or Advice:

"Every man dies. Not every man really lives." -William Wallace

This quote is important to me because it reminds me that just because you are alive doesn't mean you are really living. To really live, one needs to experience new experiences, meet people, help people, make a difference, be loud, be kind, but don't be over-compliant. Ask questions, answer questions, exceed expectations, make goals and reach them. This is living
