A Quote by Paulo Coelho

Losing ... really does say something about who you are. Among other things it measures are: do you blame others, or do you own the loss? Do you analyze your failure, or just complain about bad luck?

How you behave in those moments can perhaps be more self-defining than winning could ever be. Sometimes losing shows you for who you really are.

For the very first time I realize, that this, too, maight also be a lie.
