"Don't bail. The best of gold's is at the bottom of barrels of crap." I feel like this is the one of the strongest quotes in the book because it will apply to everyone at some point of time in their life. Even if you the best of the best will always be at a low point at some point of time. Even if you at the lowest point you can be you can never ever let yourself quit because you never know what will come out of the situation or where it will bring or lead you in your long life. If you were some dope boy brought up in the slums of cities just doing your thing just to make due will teach you how to live on your own and if that person keeps their head straight in the right place that skill could take them to another whole level in life. In another case you could be DI athlete how moves to a completely new state 7 hours away from home not know a sole who lives the area and I thrown into the world of serious competitive athletics, playing against men. From that lesson you can learn how to hold you own against older, stronger, and wiser people that will learn to respect you and you will need this skill whether it is in work or just out having fun at a party with friends.
