Break something occasionally. Know that your mistakes are your own unique way of getting to where you need to be. And remember that the story is never over.

when all else fails, you always have delusion. I will go now to make bigger mistakes and to embarrass this fine institution even more. But let me leave you with one last thought. If you can laugh at yourself, loud and hard, every time you fall, people will think you’re drunk. Thank you.
