Michael Jordan

Kids don't fail. Teachers fail, school systems fail. The people who teach children that they are failures, they are the problem.

As athletes, we're defined by what we've accomplished. Those are what most people remember and what you get paid for. But I learned more from my failures than from all of my successes put together - failures as an athlete and as a person.

Dan O'Brien

I have had many successes and many failures in my life. My successes have always been for different reasons, but my failures have always been for the same reason: I said yes when I meant no.
