The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What's that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating......and you finish off as an orgasm.
~George Carlin

Here's a cascading quote pair:

"If first you do not succeed, try, try again" - <unknown "to me">

When Thomas Edison set out to invent the incandescent light bulb, his every attempt failed, he tried adapting endless array of tube/vessels, gases/mixtures and filaments of nearly every known element/alloy fashioning them into countless spacial orientations/thickness, then after thousands of incompatible bulbs he finally created it his most memorable invention. When asked about the frustrations of what others saw as his innumerable mistakes and blunders, he replied:

"I have not failed a thousand times. I have successfully discovered 1,000 ways to NOT make a light bulb!" - Thomas A. Edison
