In an age where indulgence and hedonism is always at our fingertips, sacrifices must be made. There is always a sacrifice, whether you willingly pick it or not, whether you realize it or not.

A true man has control over his body and mind. He sacrifices for both to maintain both. It's these strong individuals that rise and maintain society. Society as a whole is the sum of its pieces - without the strength of individual character, society is doomed to decay and ruin.

"Look back over the past, with its changing empires that rose and fell, and you can foresee the future, too."

 - Marcus Aurelius
