RE: Best advice or saying
When I was shooting my longbow at the shop for the first time, an old-timer saw me struggling and walked over and said this:
"Son, that ain't no gun you're shootin'... Quit tryin' so hard to aim and just feel the shot."
For a "life quote", I've always been partial to this one:
"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning to dance in the rain."
