Stumble And Fall Quotes

“It might do me well to trip and fall,
to stumble blindly and to crawl,
for some reason ...
or none at all.”
― Shaun Hick

“Oh, of course I stumble. There are times when I’m confidently skipping along and then I trip over my own poorly-placed steps and fall face first into the thickets. But I think there’s a sort of beauty in falling. Each time I fall, I’m reminded that I’m still human, that I’m still learning, that there will always be more lessons, growth, and discovery up ahead. So, although I have times when I’m weak, when I’m critical of myself, or I lose hope, I wouldn’t give them up for the world. I cherish them – because it’s the risk of falling that makes life a grand adventure rather than just a guided tour.”
― Cristen Rodgers

“Catastrophe alone sparks man’s salvation. I don’t mean in the religious sense, although I guess it is appropriate there, too, because believers agree that salvation comes only after death. It is part of the human near-tragedy that we learn more from loss than from gain. Gain binds us until we stumble and fall into that black pit then we find the spirit of understanding and truth. And if we fall far enough and still persist, we find our salvation.”
― John Kramer, Blythe

“They secretly scoff as you slip,
losing your dignity and integrity,
and again as you stumble,
you drop your degrees and pedigree!”
― Adiela Akoo, Lost in a Quatrain
