Someone ran this by me and the first thing I thought of was this place.
"Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better."
Most will understand. Some will take it to heart. Less than that will even remember it a month from now. It'll be a miracle if even one person follows it.

LOL technically it's the story of everyones' lives  this is the very message I've been trying to tell people for awhile now but I figured hey, if someone actually important says it then maybe I may get through to the world XDD hahahahaa. It's just...ahh, such wonderfully true words. Everything about it is art and the artistic process itself! Everything! |

Yeah I know I fail all the time!
But at least I succeed at failing!
Positive thinking! Positive! XD;;
But I understand what you're pushing. I like it. |D. Now. Let's get out there and fail til we succeed!

lol that's the gist of it. even when we are successful we still fail, though =) In fact, I am failing at drawing my foxes again haha. BUT, at least when I fail now it's becoming a lot less noticeable right off the hop.

 "We have nothing to say, except that we have nothing to say..." Big Samuel Beckett fan here; really liked his dark minimalism. "Waiting For Godot" was quite something - even though I don't like Ace Attorney Godot very much. That's a good quote, though. |

Wow, what a depressing odd sod.  Neat quote, but I hate everything it stands for. For through failure we may find the means to succeed, it is only true failure if the lesson eludes us. |

I never said it was positive in any sense, nor do I have high hopes for it reaching anyone. But you can't deny how very true it is.
Just something for everyone to put into their minds. =)

I do think that there is something to be said about that quote; humans are fallible, so defeat and failure will invariably best us in the end... but it is in our nature to struggle on, isn't it? Even if the struggle is futile. |

Don't get me started on human nature! Ooooh I've studied this before >_<
Human instinct is to win and survive, it is simply how we are, in the most horrible of situations the human race will turn on itself and take it to the extremes of killing and eating one another simply to survive.
Even if told how futile our struggle may be we will still fight on simply in the belief of victory. We're not programmed to accept defeat which is why when you see someone actually admit they cannot win they seem deflated about it.
