“Don't take too much comfort in the fact that you're successful today because tomorrow could bring failure. There's no surety in life.”

We need to accept that we won't always make the right decisions, that we'll screw up royally sometimes - understanding that failure is not the opposite of success, it's part of success.
I was taught that to create anything you had to believe in failure, simply because you had to be prepared to go through an idea without any fear. Failure, you learned, as I did in art school, to be a wonderful thing. It allowed you to get up in the morning and take the pillow off your head.
Failure is authentic, and because it's authentic, it's real and genuine, and because of that, it's a pure state of being.
I believe in trusting men, not only once but twice - in giving a failure another chance.
