The band Aerosmith included this phrase as lyrics to their song "Dream On." The phrase means that in order to win, one must know what it's like to lose, so that mistakes can be learned from until an objective is reached. This phrase is closely linked my life and personal experiences because I always lose...at everything. But, I know that losing will eventually make me wise enough to easily win things.
2.) "There's an awful lot of one, but there's infinity of the other."-Matt Smith
This quote, by Matt Smith, in the TV series Doctor Who, is basically saying that there are infinite possibilities as to what can happen with every decision we make. What we choose is what we're stuck with, but we can make better choices in the future. This relates to me because I always weigh my options to find the best one. Since there are infinite, I try to find the most practical/efficient way to do something, or I do what is most beneficial. I immediately wrote it down when I first heard it, mostly because it's very true, for everyone everywhere.
3.) "Try not. Do or do not, there is no try."-Yoda
This quote is fairly self-explanatory. One should either expect or put all of their effort in doing something, not just trying to do something. It appeals to me because I like the fact that people can do whatever they put their minds to, and it shouldn't require a failed effort to do so. I live by this guideline, as I strive to do, not to try.
