Decency is Indecency's Conspiracy of Silence.
An inventor fails 999 times, and if he succeeds once, he's in. He treats his failures simply as practice shots.

Success is the proper utilization of failure.
If you are bitten by a snake, what's the best thing to do? Remain calm, separate the poison from the rest of your body, suck the poison out. Worst thing to do: get upset, chase and kill snake. Same when someone strikes out at you verbally. Remain calm, don't try to strike back at the other person. Don't let the poison spread throughout your system.
If you've never failed you've never tried.
Just because you've lost doesn't necessarily mean you've failed.
Past failures are guideposts to success.
People don't fail, they give up
Silicon Valley is a graveyard. Failure is Silicon Valley's greatest strength.
Remember that your failures are the seeds of your most glorious successes. Be sad if you must, but don't despair.
You're on the road to success when you realize that failure is only a detour.
When you stand at the edge of the cliff, jump to fly, not to fall.
You can always tell who the pioneers are because they have arrows in their back and are lying face down in the dirt.
You can fail so very often. But you are not a failure until you give up.
When you fall, don't get up empty handed
Your failures won't hurt you until you start blaming them on others.
To reprove small faults within due vehemence, is as absurd as if a man should take a great hammer to kill a fly on his friend's forehead.
Do you sometimes think, if I could just see Christ. If I could meet him. If I could talk to him personally, then this life would be easier. But you have seen him. You have met him. You have talked to him personally. This knowledge, believed in faith, can make life easier.
As our faith increases, so does our ability to obey.
Faith is that strengthening power within Urging me on my way, Teaching me all that I must know, Helping to obey. Faith is that strengthening power within Lighting the road I trod, Helping me know which way to go, Pointing the way to God.
Faith is the vision of the heart; it sees God in the dark as well as in the day.
Faith is: dead to doubts, dumb to discouragements, blind to impossibilities.
Faith makes: The uplook good, the outlook bright, the future glorious.
Faith does not deny the evil, but it sees around it.
The tears that you spill, the sorrowful, are sweeter than the laughter of snobs and the guffaws of scoffers.
Kahlil Gibran, "A Handful of San
Everyone has the brainpower to follow the stock market. If you made it through fifth-grade math, you can do it.
Peter Lynch, "Modern Maturity Ma
Don't try to buy at the bottom and sell at the top. It can't be done except by liars.
Bernard Baruch
90% of the people in the stock market, professionals and amateurs alike, simply haven't done enough homework.
William J. O'Neil
Emotions are your worst enemy in the stock market.
Don Hays
I made my money by selling too soon.
A market is the combined behavior of thousands of people responding to information, misinformation and whim.
Kenneth Chang
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with HimForever in the next.
Reinhold Niebuhr
It is better to deserve honors and not have them than to have them and not deserve them.
Mark Twain
This one step -- choosing a goal and sticking to it -- changes everything.
Scott Reed
I always tried to make clear that basketball is not the ultimate. It is of small importance in comparison to the total life we live. There is only one kind of life that truly wins, and that is the one that places faith in the hands of the Savior. Until that is done, we are on an aimless course that runs in circles and goes nowhere.
John Wooden
It's not so important who starts the game but who finishes it.
Failure to prepare is preparing to fail.
Nothing will work unless you do.
For an athlete to function properly, he must be intent. There has to be a definite purpose and goal if you are to progress. If you are not intent about what you are doing, you aren't able to resist the temptation to do something else that might be more fun at the moment.
Sports do not build character. They reveal it.
It is most difficult, in my mind, to separate any success, whether it be in your profession, your family, or as in my case, in basketball, from religion.
