But there is suffering in life, and there are defeats. No one can avoid them. But it's better to lose some of the battles in the struggles for your dreams than to be defeated without ever knowing what you're fighting for.

Re: chat

Every great mistake has a halfway moment, a split second when it can be recalled and perhaps remedied.

There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all

We read the world wrong and say that it deceives us.

Life is to be lived, not controlled, and humanity is won by continuing to play in face of certain defeat.

Do not waste yourself in rejection, nor bark against the bad, but chant the beauty of the good.

Re: chat

It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept, study, advice, and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done

Re: chat

We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery

Re: chat

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Re: chat

Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

Re: chat

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Re: chat

Most things break, including hearts. The lessons of life amount not to wisdom, but to scar tissue and callus.

Re: chat

doing more than the average is what keeps the average down.

Re: chat

Good people are good because they've come to wisdom through failure. We get very little wisdom from success, you know.

Re: chat

Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.

Re: chat

Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.
