"Be patient. Your skin took a while to deteriorate. Give it some time to reflect a calmer inner state. As one of my friends states on his Facebook profile: "The true Losers in Life, are not those who Try and Fail, but those who Fail to Try."

"When we fail, our pride supports us, and when we succeed it betrays us."

"No one can travel so far that he does not make some progess each day. So let us never give up. Then we shall move forward daily in the Lord's way. And let us never despair because of our limited success. Even though it is so much less than we would like, our labour is not wasted when today is better than yesterday!"

"The most effective leaders are actually better at guarding against danger when they acknowledge it that it exists. Cowards, in contrast, cling to the hope that failure will never happen and may be sloppy in the face of danger - not because they don't acknowledge that it exists, but because they are just too afraid of it to look it in the eye."

"Success breeds complacency. Complacency breeds failure. Only the paranoid survive."

"He believed in himself, believed in his quixotic ambition, letting the failures of the previous day disappear as each new day dawned. Yesterday was not today. The past did not predict the future if he could learn from his mistakes."

"I am struck by how sharing our weakness and difficulties is more nourishing to others than sharing our qualities and successes."

"When you can overcome the fear of failure, success will not be far away."

"THE FOUR HEAVENLY FOUNTAINSLaugh, I tell youAnd you will turn backThe hands of time.Smile, I tell youAnd you will reflectThe face of the divine.Sing, I tell youAnd all the angels will sing with you!Cry, I tell youAnd the reflections found in your pool of tears -Will remind you of the lessons of today and yesterdayTo guide you through the fears of tomorrow."

"Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm."

"The true measure of a man is not what he dreams, but what he aspires to be; a dream is nothing without action. Whether one fails or succeeds is irrelevant; all that matters is that there was motion in his life. That alone affects the world."

"Failure at some point in your life is inevitable, but giving up is unforgivable."

"Some people think driving is speeding the car. Only to find out. Driving is not speeding the car but is being able to control the car."

"The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life."

"If you know the power of your thoughts, you would never fear failure."

"For some unknown reason, success usually occurs in private, while failure occurs infull view."

"I'm hopeful. I know there is a lot of ambition in Washington, obviously. But I hope the ambitious realize that they are more likely to succeed with success as opposed to failure."

"The road to success and the road to failure are almost exactly the same."

"It is during our failures that we discover our true desire for success."

"The way to screw up somebody's life is to give them what they want."
