“Success is not really important. Everyone loves success. Everyone
wants to do things well. But we all know that people are really good at doing
things badly. Failure is the thing that we are best at. This is the difference
between people and animals and we must not think that failure is bad.”
Stephen Pile, the author of “The Book of
Heroic Failures”
I achieved my first major and historical victory
in the field of sports; a long, long time ago in August 1959, when I come last
in the Sack Race at the Sports Meet day at my old school, cheered by all!
