Man's greatest battle is being a true philosopher.

Haven't you learned anything, not even with the approach of death? Stop thinking all the time that you're in the way, that you're bothering the person next to you. If people don't like it, they can complain. And if they don't have the courage to complain, that's their problem

Ambrose Bierce

Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.

Steve Jobs

I wish I'd gotten sober at a younger age.

Janice Dickinson

Success needs no explanation. Failure does not have one that matters.
