“Bravery is measured by how hard you try, not by whether you actually succeed.”
“A government of fighters won't know how to lead, only create more war. You think bravery is measured in resistance.”
“A mind filled with negative thoughts makes you feel miserable and inadequate and will lead to failure after failure no matter how hard you try to succeed.”
“It's hard to answer a question you haven't been asked. It's hard to show you tried unless you end up succeeding.”
“...do you actually think that how long a person grieves is a measure of how much they loved someone?”
“Can you imagine doing something in your life that will be fully satisfying and redeeming for your having tried to do it, whether you succeeded in it or failed, and that, correspondingly, would be fully shameful had you not tried to do it?”
