See i failed only once :)

A winner is NOT one who NEVER FAILS, but one who NEVER QUITS! .


A candidate for a news broadcasters post was rejected by officials since his voice was not fit for a news broadcaster. He was also told that with his obnoxiously long name, he would never be famous.
He is Amitabh Bacchan. (India's biggest movie legend)


A small boy - the fifth amongst seven siblings of a poor father, was selling newspapers in a small village to earn his living. He was not exceptionally smart at school but was fascinated by religion and rockets.
The first rocket he built crashed. A missile that he built crashed multiple times and he was made a butt of ridicule. He is the person to have scripted the Space Odyssey of India single-handedly.

Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam.(India's president)


In 1962, four nervous young musicians played their first record audition for the executives of the Decca recording Company. The executives were not impressed.
While turning down this group of musicians, one executive said, "We don't like their sound. Groups of guitars are on the way out."

The group was called The Beatles.


In 1944, Emmeline Snively, director of the Blue Book Modelling Agency old modelling hopeful Norma Jean Baker, "You'd better learn secretarial work or else get married." She went on and became Marilyn Monroe.


In 1954, Jimmy Denny, manager of the Grand Ole Opry, Fired a singer after one performance. He told him, "You ain't goin' nowhere....son. You ought to go back to drivin' a truck."

He went on to become Elvis Presley.


When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, it did not ring off the hook with calls from potential backers. After making a demonstration call,President Rutherford Hayes said,"That's an amazing invention, but who would ever want to see one of them?"


When Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, he tried over 2000 experiments before he got it to work. A young reporter asked him how it felt to fail so manytimes. He said, "I never failed once. I invented the light bulb. It just happened to be a 2000-step process."


In the 1940s, another young inventor named Chester Carlson took his idea to 20 corporations, including some of the biggest in the country. They all turned him down. In 1947, after 7 long years of rejections, he finally got a tiny company in Rochester, NY, the Haloid company, to purchase the rights to his invention -- an electrostatic paper-copying process.

Haloid became Xerox Corporation.


A school teacher scolded a boy for not paying attention to his mathematics and for not being able to solve simple problems. She told him that you would not become anybody in life.
The boy was Albert Einstein.

The way I see it.....

I hate people who drink....

I really hate people who smoke....

I really get pissed when a see some 'rascal' puke after drinking......

I really want to kill a person who puked/fell in the gutter the last nite and during the next lunch says that he was perfectly fine.....

Most of the friends of mine... even the ones who seemed to be very strong at their resolve have taken to drinking..... Unfortunately, some of my closest friends(even those of the past) find it good....

It might sound paradoxical but Madhushala is one novel i have liked most!!!

When I say drink/smoke it means anything more than once in a month....

I want to write much more on this one... but then who will read a 10000 word essay?
