If you live through defeat, you are not defeated. If you are beaten but acquire wisdom, you have won. Lose yourself to improve yourself. Only when we shed all self-definition do we find who we really are.

Look before you leap. And if you want to follow in my footsteps, make sure you step in the ones that went in the right direction.
