Remembering Evan Tanner
By Josh Stein on Sep 12, 2008
I realize that we have already posted on the passing of Evan Tanner, but I ran across a quote from Evan that I thought was worth mentioning.
“I will do nothing lightly. When I walk, I will walk heavily. When I fight, I will fight with conviction. When I speak, I will speak strongly. When I feel, I will feel everything. When I love, I will love with everything.”
It’s a profound thought, and it’s worth remembering that this is a man who lived his life passionately and always gave us a war in the cage.
Rarely are there genuinely great people, and when we lose one of them, they’re worth remembering.
