“Failure after long perseverance is much grander than never to have a striving good enough to be called a failure.”
“Our greatest glory is, not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”

“If you’re not prepared to be wrong, you’ll never come up with anything original.”
“The phoenix must burn to emerge.”
“Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.”
