Dustin Mendoza has had many thoughts, and has agreed to share some of them here.

His thoughts are as follows:

-"Human beings, in our nature, wish to become great. Deep inside each one of us wishes to be, not the leader, but the person who has everything going for him/her. I am one of those people. And I must say, that being/having everything going for you is utterly boring; there are no surprises, no dilemmas, no life changing situations, no room for evolution. But, if a person tries, you could still evolve, for we all have the capacity for evolution. Every single one of us can be greater than we could ever imagine, the only thing that stops us is our desires. Our desires, our quirks, our social rules that govern us, stop us from being able to truly be who they want to be. I, have broken down all my boundaries, and now every obstacle is merely a bump in the road, but for others, it is a wall that has no end. Having no problems, or more accurately, having problems that ultimately work out in the end, is somewhat of a bore, for there is little chaos within it, and I am one who enjoys the complexities of life."

-"Chess is a game for mad men and geniuses, for the tactics of madmen are always employed here."
---------------------------------------------------
-"We who think ourselves so highly, always remember our greatest of falls, and can never remember a time in which we found happiness, unless it is followed by a great loss or fall."
---------------------------------------------------
-"Normalcy is the death of mankind."
