If you're constantly pushing yourself higher
â
If you're constantly pushing yourself higher,
higher, the law of averages
not to mention the myth of Icarus
predicts that you will at some point fall.
And when you do,
I want you to know this,
remember this: There is no such thing as failure.
â
Meaning
This quote means falling after striving high is not true failure. Failure is part of the climb, not the end of it.
