Failure happens all the time. It happens every day in practice. What makes you better is how you react to it. — Mia Hamm

Coffee is real good when you drink it gives you time to think. It's a lot more than just a drink; it's something happening.

I want to say somewhere: I've tried to be forgiving. And yet. There were times in my life, whole years, when anger got the better of me. Ugliness turned me inside out. There was a certain satisfaction in bitterness. I courted it. It was standing outside, and I invited it in. — Nicole Krauss

And through all of those years, I have been falling toward you. — Robert James Waller
