Hans Rosling is a Swedish medical doctor who rose to prominence when he produced a Ted Talk in which he promoted the use of data to explore development issues. He said, "My best friend in medical school was a magician. We were shown an X-ray of a sword swallower, and I tried it and failed. Then I got a sword swallower as a patient, and he taught me."
Andrew Lloyd Webber said, "What strikes me is that there's a very fine line between success and failure. Just one ingredient can make the difference."
Lea Michele, an actress and singer, said, "I always knew that I wanted to work, and I knew I wanted to be a singer and an actor. I knew that every choice I made would help me get to that point. So the better the choices I made, the more of a chance I would have to get to where I wanted to be."
Gladys Bronwyn Stern, a British author and critic who died in 1973, wrote, "Both optimists and pessimists contribute to our society. The optimist invents the airplane; and the pessimist, the parachute."
