"Those at the top of the mountain didn't fall there."

"Only those who do not expect anything are never disappointed.  Only those who never try, never fail.

Anyone who is currently achieving anything in life is simultaneously risking failure.  It is always better to fail in doing something than to excel in doing nothing.  A flawed diamond is more valuable than a perfect brick.

People who have few failures also have few victories."

-- John L. Mason

"Scientifically, a bee is too fat to fly.  It is not aerodynamic enough and it's wings are too short.  But why does it still fly, you ask?

Because nobody told him he couldn't."
