than a pessimist who is always right.”

I will persist until I succeed.
I was not delivered into this world into defeat, nor does failure course in my veins.
I am not a sheep waiting to be prodded by my shepherd.
I am a lion and i refuse to talk, to walk, to sleep with sheep.
The slaughterhouse of failure is not my destiny.
I will persist until i succeed.

“Words do not express thoughts very well; every thing immediately becomes a little different, a little distorted, a little foolish. And yet it also pleases me and seems right that what is of value and wisdom of one man seems nonsense to another.”
Gautama Buddha
"Smile upon a world that will never stop, We don't control life as such but we can control each step we take.
The past is the past , let go . Every thought of all the bad moments that dwells upon ourselves is another step backwards, forget yesterday walk forward step into tomorrow.
Put one foot in front of another, two more forward than yesterday.
Lets not walk backwards, every step we take is our choice.
Make every step forward, but never forget who you are and why you don't want to look back."
A man with no legs, still has two hands.
