Currently rehabbing from a broken arm. Planning on getting into boxing or muay thai after I'm done. Does anyone have any recs for books about fighting to hold me over or give me a head start?

“Madge wouldn't let herself be old. It was 1920 and she was as young as the century-the Great War was over, Prohibition was in, money was everywhere. It was a grand thing at the very beginning of the Jazz Age to be alive and young and a high-priced whore. It would be 1920 around Madge till the day she dropped dead.”—Richard Stark

“It was strange, in a way, that now it was only the people he remembered. At the time he had never thought about people at all, but only of issues, of theories and dogmas and the masses, and now that it was all over and half his brain had been lost in the fight he never thought of the issues at all.”—Richard Stark

“The same principle always worked. If we are rushed for time, sow time and we will reap time. Go to church and spend a quiet hour in prayer. You will have more time than ever and your work will get done. Sow time with the poor. Sit and listen to them, give them your time lavishly. You will reap time a hundredfold. Sow kindness and you will reap kindness. Sow love, you will reap love.”—Dorothy Day
