Bad feelings Quote by Justin DePaoli
““There are lot of bad feelings in life. But none worse than knowing you failed. It’s failure that callouses over the glint of your eyes, the passion in your heart. It’s failure that dismantles all the pride you’ve built up and the reputation you’ve acquired. And when you fail for that final time, and you’ve got nothing possibly left to give, that’s when you really know if you’ve got what it takes. You’re stripped to the core. Nothing to hold you back. No pride, no fear, no happiness, no sadness. As primitive and raw as you can be. That’s a dangerous man there.””
