“I might fuck up again. As a matter of fact, I’m quite certain I will. But it will not mean I’m nothing. It will never mean I’m nothing again. My mistakes will live on in me, when I’m doing well, and when I’m diving back down into the depths again. They are as much a part of me as any success or good thing I ever do.”
