1 " Drudge up the audacity to pull yourself out of whatever pit your own self-doubt has confined you, and go out there to fail spectacularly. Fail with failures so huge, they validate your detractors and censors, thrill your opponents and enemies, and worry your friends and family.Because, when you fail like that, I can tell you from personal experience, it is so much more invigorating, so much more life-affirming than succeeding at what society has consigned us to achieve. "

2 " Sometimes, life hits you in the face with a pie. Whatever kind it is, the ingredients will have some good properties for your skin: Cherries have antioxidants, custard has milk, and chocolate has minerals. What this means is that a pie in the face once in a while is not a tragedy, it's a free facial. Wipe it off, admire your skin, and get on with what you were doing. "
3 " People are just like plants. If you give them sun, water, proper nutrition, they grow. If you put them in an environment designed especially for them, they thrive. But if you try to root them in a space made for a different type of plant, they'll struggle to survive, forever withered, frail, and small. "
4 " If you hold your nose to sleep with skunks, their ticks and fleas still give you disease. "
