A mistake is evidence that someone tried to do something. Any man's life will be filled with constant and unexpected encouragement if he makes up his mind to do his level best each day. Life is a battle in which we fall from wounds we receive in running away. Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. You live longer once you realize that any time spent being unhappy is wasted.
Life is like a dogsled team.
If you ain't the lead dog, the scenery never changes. If it wasn't for the rocks in the bed, the stream wouldn't make such a beautiful noise. What you are afraid to do is a clear indicator of the next thing you need to do. Hope is the feeling you have that the feeling you have isn't permanent. Rudeness is the weak man's limitation of strength.
