I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying.

I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying.

I've never been afraid to fail.

I know fear is an obstacle for some people, but it is an illusion to me . . . Failure always made me try harder next time.

I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.

I didn't have to [start playing again]. But I did it with the benefit of trying to help an organization to get back on their feet. And the gratitude that was given? It was 'your service is no longer wanted or needed.' So I felt like I was used in a sense.
