❝Something now appears to you as an error which you used to love as a truth, or as a probability. You cast this opinion aside and imagine that your reason has thereby gained a victory. But perhaps that error was as necessary for you then - for the old “you” (you are always another person) - as all your current “truths” : that “error” being a skin as it were which concealed and veiled from you much that you were not yet permitted to see. ❞

Nietzsche Lexido

We make stuff often, and therefore, we fail often.
Ultimately, we strive for little failures that help us course-correct along the way, and we view every failure as a learning opportunity, part of our experiential education.❞

Scott Belsky in A Manifesto For Free Radicals

❝ So I must baffle at the hint
And cipher at the sign,
And make much blunder, if at last
I take the clew divine. ❞

Emily Dickinson, excerpt from “Part Four: Time and Eternity”
