Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.
~Samuel Beckett

The business of the poet and the novelist is to show the sorriness underlying the grandest things, and the grandeur underlying the sorriest things.
–Thomas Hardy

It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom.
It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest
might weaken and the wisest might err.
Mahatma Gandhi

Art is a human activity having for its purpose the transmission to others of the highest and best feelings to which men have risen.

-Leo Tolstoy
