Success and failure are equally disastrous.

Summary

This quote suggests that both success and failure can have negative consequences. While success might bring complacency, arrogance, or the temptation to rest on one's laurels, failure can bring despair, self-doubt, and a fear of taking risks. It implies that extreme outcomes, whether positive or negative, can be equally detrimental to a person's growth and well-being. Therefore, it is essential to maintain a balanced perspective, learn from both successes and failures, and strive for a more holistic approach to achieving one's goals.
