“Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit.”

“The most difficult thing in the world is to know how to do a thing and to watch someone else do it wrong, without comment.”

“The most important thing in life is not to capitalize on our gains, any fool can do that. The really important thing is to profit from your losses. That requires intelligence; and it makes the difference between a man of sense and a fool.”
