I think this person is trying to say that the most valuable possession that a man can have is his health and they should realize that because they can damage their health mentally or physically by doing drugs. That would harm your brain and mentally and not doing exercise you can become overweight.

                                                                  W. Clement Stone
i think W. Clement Stone is trying to say that that in order to do the right thing you have to stand up, have courage and say no when someone is trying to make you do something you don' want to do such as drugs. Saying no is the right thing to do.

                             "Courage is being scared to death and doing the right thing anyway."
                                                                      Chae Richardson
I think Chae Richardson is telling us the definition of courage. He is trying to say that you should always do the right thing even if your scared out of your mind you should still do it because that would make you a person with courage. For example if you are at a party and everyone is doing drugs and you don't want to then you have to say no and if they are all making fun of you and laughing at you, you would be a person with courage because you did the right thing when you were scared and nobody else did.
