Quotation of the Day - 8 September 2004 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

I keep missing days. You could say I'm "failing" in my promise... :-)

Quote:

Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid.

John Keats - English poet (1795 - 1821)

...unless your failure results in your death...but you can only die once, so I guess you're still avoiding that same "error" twice. And of course, that failure would also be the dicovery of what is false, or wrong, as it were. Hopefully other could learn from your failure; remember not all pain is gain.
