Quote by Scott Adams

“What you rarely see is a stillborn failure that transmogrifies into a stellar success. Small successes can grow into big ones, but failures rarely grow into successes. I can’t think of an example in my life. It’s generally true that if no one is excited about your art/product/idea in the beginning, they never will be. If the first commercial version of your work excites no one to action, it’s time to move on to something different. Don’t be fooled by the opinions of friends and family. They’re all liars.”

“GODMAN QUOTES 7 ***Offence*** Whom you treat worse than you treat yourself will be offended with you. When an equal is not shared equal without prejudice, offence may come to stay. It’s an offence to be offended without offence…mood desires control. To make amend of the spoil, make a spoil of what is bad, and make the wrong right. In disappointment, face what you count as the worse of your dismay. No matter the fear of losing never accept the worse you could have made better. It will bite hard to accept, your mistake is your shortfall. If you treat your weakest point you have improved for the better. What causes trouble is what separates the bond. Without the unity to be one you are separate in your ways.”

“Harada: Failure is essential, Amanda. It's the motivator. Even as an infant. You fall and fall again until eventually you can put one foot in front of the other and walk. Amanda: I don't like the not knowing. Not knowing what's wrong. Not knowing what I'm doing. Not knowing what's happening next. Harada: You're human. Of course you don't like it. The trick is learning to savor the unknown. To embrace mystery. Trust me... too much knowlegde can become... will become a bigger burden than ignorance and failure will ever be.”
