Here are some great quotes that talk about the reality of life and how not everything is as it seems

I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed

- Michael Jordan

An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind

- Gandhi

By working faithfully eight hours a day you may eventually get to be boss and work twelve hours a day

- Robert Frost

Failure is the condiment that gives success its flavor

- Truman Capote

Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself

- Leo Tolstoy

100% of the shots you don’t take don’t go in

- Wayne Gretzky

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great

- Mark Twain

If you knew how much work went into it, you wouldn’t call it genius

- Michelangelo

When I hear somebody sigh, ‘Life is hard,’ I am always tempted to ask, ‘Compared to what?’

- Sydney Harris

To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing

- Elbert Hubbard

You succeed, because of your failures.

So ultimately, its doesn't matter if you fail.

So then even more ultimtaely, it doesn't really matter what the outcome is, because it doesn't matter if you fail.

So then ultimately, failure = success

Divides by zero

Eye for an eye will make the wole word blind??? thats bullshit...and fatalistic, I'd rather fight back then be killed....no wonder Mr. Gandhi couldn't save his country being cut to pieces by an invading people and no wonder Mr. Gandhis india for thousand of years had been marginalised precisely becuase this philosophy doen'st work in the real world. Enough of the cliches dude, make your own qoutes based on your own life.

 Well, thats not really true. Ghandi was instrumental in securing India's independance and also with the anti-racism struggle in South Africa, amongst other things. His philosophy definitely has a level of effectiveness.
