"This life's hard,

but it's harder

if you're

stupid."

‍ ‍One way to not be stupid, is to listen to other people’s ideas and advice about living.

Some of it may work for you, and some of it may not. You have to sort that out for yourself.

A great many “BIG GUYS” (and gals) have come and gone through the years, and some are still with us. They have left “bread crumbs” of advice for us in hopes that some of them would be of help to us.

G.T. Barbarian has taken it upon himself to share what he feels is the best of what he and others have had to say about our lives - and the challenges that come with them - with the rest of us.

‍ ‍What he - and all the other people whose wisdom has made it into this book - has to say may not make your life any easier (because, “This life’s hard…”), but it may help you to understand it a little better.

It may help you to better prepare for the problems that life throws at you.

Here is a small sample
of what you will find in this book:

A winner is a loser

who tried one more time.

. . .

I have not failed.

I’ve just found 10,000 ways

that don’t work.

~Thomas Alva Edison

. . .

It is hard to fail,

but it is worse

to have never tried to succeed.

~Theodore Roosevelt

. . .

It’s not how much you have
that makes people look up to you.

It’s who you are.

~Elvis Aaron Presley

. . .

A gentleman
is one who puts more into the world
than he takes out…

especially in how he honors the women
who cross his path.

~George Bernard Shaw

. . .

Take rejection,
not as an indication of personal failing,

but as a wrong address.

~Ray Bradbury

. . .

Honesty is the first chapter

in the book of wisdom.

~Thomas Jefferson

. . .

If you don’t find the time,

if you don’t do the work,

you don’t get the results.

~Arnold Schwarzenegger

. . .

Our greatest ability as humans

is not to change the world,

but to change ourselves.

~Mahatma Gandhi

Publisher’s Note

G.T. Barbarian, George Theodore Barbarian (named for George Washington and Theodore Roosevelt), or “George the Barbarian”, as he is known to a few close friends (for reasons best left to the imagination), wishes to thank everyone for their increasing interest in him since the publication of this book, but he wishes for me to say no more about him.

He does not want anyone to know anything more about him other than what is on the pages of this book.

Nothing.

End of story.

No mas.

Nada.

Zilch.

Zero.

Not one more word.

Don’t even try to imagine,

because you couldn’t possibly.

That is all.

Es ist Kaputt!!!

…and NO BOOK SIGNINGS!!!

…and who am I to dispute that with him?

Thank you so much for your interest.

I will keep you informed should he change his mind.
