Richard Nixon on failure

Always remember, others may hate you- but those who hate you don’t win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself.

As far as I am concerned now, I have no enemies in the press whatsoever.

I welcome this kind of examination because people have got to know whether or not their President is a crook. Well I’m not a crook.

I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot, and I missed. And I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is precisely why I succeed.

Obstacles don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

Michael Jordanborn 1963

Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment.
