UNIT 5: MEMORY, READING, TESTING Chapters 3-6 in Master Student
“If tomorrow wasn’t promised – what would you give for today? Forget everything else.
Forget everything else. Forget that there was any sunlight left. What would you spend today…thinking about? Yourself?
Or the man that’s beside you? Or the man that you know you’d give everything in your heart for?
What would you think about?
We get one opportunity in life. One chance at life. To do whatever you’re going to do.
To lay your foundation and to make whatever mark you’re going to make.
Whatever legacy you’re going to leave. Leave your legacy.
~Ray Lewis, Stanford Basketball Coach
