"500 posts, that's the number I figured when I was a kid. 500 street posts and you could consider yourself a legitimate tough guy. You need them for experience. To develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then, after, you realize that's what you are."
Great quote. Altered a bit to fit the premise.
