No matter who succeeds or fails, the peacemaker will always suffer.
The matchmaker gets three cups of wine when he succeeds and three slaps on the cheek when he fails.
Whether a revolution succeeds or fails people of great hearts will always be sacrificed to it.

An inventor fails 999 times, and if he succeeds once, he's in. He treats his failures simply as practice shots.

(V – 2010) Laiku 206
(1) Success:
Its seeds grow well not in success but in failure
The more one fails the more one succeeds, sure!
When force and reason are in conflict, force of reason prevails and being reasonable isn't enough.
An act of love that fails is just as much a part of the divine life as an act of love that succeeds, for love is measured by fullness, not by reception.

I Love....
i love...
that's the reason i walk,
the reason i breathe.
the reason i grieve.
the reason i dance.
the reason i smile.
the reason i listen.
the reason i offer a hand.
the reason i see beauty.
the reason i see both darkness,
and light....
the reason i take chances.
the reason i keep going.
the reason i get angry.
the reason i forgive.
the reason i touch.
the reason i question.
the reason i believe.
the reason i am tolerant.
the reason i understand.
the reason i fall.
the reason i fly.
the reason i write...
the reason i am what i am!

Royal Queen
It succeeds on the basis of wellness,
Yet since we learn on matters of health,
The story is the same and the very same,
I agree.
It fails on the thinking schedules,
Yet as we all learn on the wealth that gives power
To us all, the very same thing can be said:
Keep a work out and keep a nicety with.
I do not see!

God Will Be Back
Between belief and non-belief
Battle the reason and faith
When one fails, the other takes over
Down on our knees, we surrender.
Faith in reason finds no reason in faith
An escaping belief in god's presence
All the testaments don't live up to the truth
When reason reigns, god makes no sense.
But then reasons can't bring solace
Rationality is hard and ruthless
When the fire brings tormenting pain
Reason flees and god soothes like rain.

If you hype something and it succeeds, you're a genius - it wasn't a hype. If you hype it and it fails, then it was just a hype.

I believe every chess player senses beauty, when he succeeds in creating situations, which contradict the expectations and the rules, and he succeeds in mastering this situation.

The merciless beloved
Knowing that you have crowded teeth,
he loves you and fails not.
Knowing that you have strange lips,
he loves you and fails not.
Knowing that you are not attainable,
he loves you and fails not.
Knowing that he must not love you,
he loves you and fails not.
However you ignore and evade,
he loves you and fails not.
Can you find some one better,
who can emulate him?
Are you a granite or limestone?
Can you save his love?

When all else fails
When all else fails,
Look down the tunnel.
See there's a light,
Shining there,
For you.
When all else fails,
Search the darkness.
For there's always,
A pinpoint
Sparkling there.
When all else fails,
Peer into the gloom,
I'm sure,
There's a spark
Of something new.

What It Is That Does This
Sometimes I have to force myself,
To shut down and turn off.
Sometimes my need succeeds,
Unrested.
And I am at a lost,
To find an excuse...
To direct this 'energy'.
That 'boost' that uses me.
Believing I control.
And I am the boss.
But I am not!
And I wish I could tell you,
Who is!
Or what it is that does this!
Although I may know why.

The one pervading evil of democracy is the tyranny of the majority, or rather of that party, not always the majority, that succeeds, by force or fraud, in carrying elections.

aLL AbOuT FaThEr
Tough from the out, soft inside,
With him begins life's ride.
A friend in enemy's disguise,
Will he ever take a son's side?
Answers concealed behind bitter questions,
His words often seem potent than his action.
He fails everytime a son succeeds, one feels,
Only to realize the truth as time flees.
Pa, Dad, Abbu, and the names son's keep,
When he's gone he makes a son's soul weep.

Force Behind The Power
(stevie wonder)
Since the beginning of all lifes beginnings
Right at the very dawning of the sun
Any and everyone had cause and reason
For in good all good is done
Now down in every heart there are two forces
One is for the wrong, ones for the right
But never do you have to fear with this as armor
For good always wins the fight
Whats that force behind the power that wakes you each day
Whats that force behind the power that chases eavil away
Whats that force behind the power that puts a smile on your face
It is love, pure love, it is love
In every book of truth it has been written
That we are measured by the things we do
If for the good of all is what you like doing
Then all that good will come to you
That doesnt mean you have to be a rich man
You could be a person living on the street
But if you give but only words to lift someone higher
Then a heart of gold is what you will be
Whats that force behind the power that wakes you each day
Whats that force behind the power that chases eavil away
Whats that force behind the power that puts a smile on your face
It is love, pure love, it is love
Whats that force behind the power that makes you willing to share
Whats that force behind the power that for a lost soul youre there
Whats that force behind the power thats not to busy to care
It is love, pure love, it is love
Not trying to preach about it, but no one can do without it
Whats that force behind the power that will lend a hand
Whats that force behind the power when others cant yes you can
Whats that force behind the power its greater than any man
It is love, gods love, it is love
Whats that force behind the power that tears walls down of hate
Whats that force behind the power that is never too late
Whats that force behind the power that forever will wait
It is love, gods love, it is love
