Quote by H. Ross Perot

Failures are like skinned knees, painful but superficial.

Failures are like skinned knees, painful but superficial.

Summary

This quote suggests that failures, although they may cause us discomfort and temporary pain, are not as significant as they may seem. Similar to skinned knees, they are superficial wounds that can be healed over time. It indicates that failures are a natural part of life and should not be dwelled upon or seen as something impactful. Rather, they are opportunities for growth and learning, ultimately having less lasting impact than we initially fear.

Wo wei ni xie de, he said, as he raised the violin to his left shoulder, tucking it under his chin. He had told her many violinists used a shoulder rest, but he did not: there was a slight mark on the side of his throat, like a permanent bruise, where the violin rested. You made something for me? Tessa asked.I wrote something for you, he corrected, with a smile, and began to play.
