Thomas Paine was an American Founding Father, inventor, political philosopher, and statesman. 

 

Thomas had two quotes that really stand out to me...

 

"The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph."

 

"I prefer peace over trouble, but if there must be trouble, let it come in my day so that my child may have peace."

 

This dude sounds like an absolute STUD.

 

If times are going to be hard, he wants to be on the front lines. 

 

We live in a society where most people just want to be comfortable. 

​

Be the type of person who thrives in challenging situations.
