About this Quote
This quote by Marilyn vos Savant is a suggestion that failure is not the end of the world. It is a temporary setback that can be conquered with hard work and determination. The secret is to not quit. Quiting is what makes failure long-term. It is very important to remember that failure belongs of life and it is not something to be ashamed of. Instead, it must be viewed as an opportunity to discover and grow. It is important to put in the time to assess what went wrong and to use that knowledge to make enhancements. With the best mindset and effort, failure can be turned into success.
"If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right"
"I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant"
