| I hold no dream of fortune vast, | |
| Nor seek undying fame. | |
| I do not ask when life is past | |
| That many know my name. | |
| I may not own the skill to rise | |
| To glory’s topmost height, | |
| Nor win a place among the wise, | |
| But I can keep the right. | |
| And I can live my life on earth | |
| Contented to the end, | |
| If but a few shall know my worth | |
| And proudly call me friend. | |

Failure gave me an inner security that I had never attained by passing examinations. Failure taught me things about myself that I could have learned no other way. I discovered that I had a strong will, and more discipline than I had suspected; I also found out that I had friends whose value was truly above the price of rubies.
– J.K. Rowling
