"EVERY MAN WHO CONTENDS IN THE ARENA STRIVES FOR SELF-MASTERY - AND THIS, FOR A MORTAL PRIZE. BUT WE STRIVE FOR AN IMMORTAL PRIZE. THUS, I DO NOT STRIVE WITHOUT PURPOSE. I DO NOT MERELY SHADOWBOX. BUT I POMMEL MY BODY AND MAKE IT OBEY ME UNLESS, AFTER PREACHING THIS, I MYSELF BE BROUGHT TO SHAME." (1 COR 9:25-27)
