Never give up, which is the lesson I learned from boxing. As soon as you learn to never give up, you have to learn the power and wisdom of unconditional surrender, and that one doesn't cancel out the other; they just exist as contradictions. The wisdom of it comes as you get older.

Kris Kristofferson

Most things break, including hearts. The lessons of life amount not to wisdom, but to scar tissue and callus.

True prosperity lies in the richness of experiences, the depth of gratitude, and the pursuit of your passions. So open your heart to the endless possibilities, believe in your own potential, and let your spirit soar towards a life of abundant prosperity.

Remembering is painful, it's difficult, but it can be inspiring and it can give wisdom.

I will give you a definition of a proud man: he is a man who has neither vanity nor wisdom one filled with hatreds cannot be vain, neither can he be wise.

Kris Kristofferson is a wise man. He's an excellent song-writer, too. One of my favorites, in fact.

Back of every mistaken venture and defeat is the laughter of wisdom, if you listen.
