Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed.

No man is a failure who is enjoying life.

The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows. 

Sometimes life’s going to hit you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith. 

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