GEMS OF THOUGHT
FAILURE OR SUCCESS. I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand as. in what direction we are moving.—Oliver Wendell Holmes. How much easier our work would be if we put forth as much effort trying to improve the quality of it as most of us do trying to find excuses for not properly attending to it. —George W. Ballinger. When unconscious of a mistake, one thinks he is not mistaken; but this false consciousness does not change the fact, or its results; suffering and mistakes recur until one is awake to their cause and character. — Mary Baker Eddy. Every failure is a step to success; every detection of what is false directs us towards what is true; every trial exhausts some tempting form of error. --William Whewell.
