“You know what GED stands for? Good Enough Diploma.”

“Standing alone,
eager to just believe,
it's good enough to be what you really are,
but in your heart,
uncertainty forever lies,
and you'll always be,
somewhere on the outside.”

“You have to know what you stand for, not just what you stand against.”

“I left my fingerprints somewhere - that's good enough. I am my own person - that's good enough. I stand my ground - that's good enough.”

“If we can’t stand up to the never good enough and who do you think you are? we can’t move forward.”

“When the ceremony was over, I found The Bear and handed him my diploma along with a ballpoint pen. "What's this for, lamb?" "I want you to sign it, Colonel. I want you to make it official," I answered. "I wan the name of a man I can respect on my diploma, Colonel." He handed me back the diploma without signing it. "There already is, Bubba," he answered. "There already is."”

“Anyway, that's what life is, just one learning experience after another, and when you're through with all the learning experiences you graduate and what you get for a diploma is, you die.”

“God will not look you over for medals, degrees or diplomas but for scars.”

“All I know is that I love you. And for the first time, that's good enough.”

“Sometimes love's not enough. And if it's not enough, what good is it?”
