In this world of humans, there’s no such thing as failure.Ryoma Sakamoto
Do you remember when it briefly became a hot topic that “Sakamoto Ryoma’s name might disappear from textbooks”? It turns out it’s not the case for all textbooks.
There are various explanations, but it seems the judgment was that his main contribution—working tirelessly to forge the Satsuma-Choshu Alliance—wasn’t enough on its own.
Perhaps behind-the-scenes contributors are harder to evaluate in history, which feels a bit disappointing.
Ryoma’s words, however, are very forward-looking: we can learn from any failure.
Defeat in a match, a deal that fell through—setbacks are part of life.
Now that we know Ryoma’s words, we don’t want to let these failures remain mere failures.
Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.Anne Frank
These are the words of Anne Frank, which gently wrap around a troubled heart.
The greater the loss, the more life may appear faded.
Yet this famous quote reminds us that there are still so many wonderful things by your side.
When you want to recover from a painful reality, don’t force yourself to forget; instead, try turning your attention to what you love and what moves your heart.
By doing so, your spirit may regain its strength, and a life that seemed washed out might come alive again in different colors.
If you’ve done the best you can, worrying won’t improve the situation. I worry about many things, but I don’t worry about water overflowing from a dam.Walt Disney
These are the words of Walt Disney, founder of a dreamland that heals everyone’s heart.
The more earnestly you devote yourself to something, the more worries you’ll have.
You start fretting about this and that, and it can feel like your heart is being crushed by anxiety.
That’s only because you’re facing things sincerely—it’s not a bad thing.
Still, as this quote suggests, sometimes it’s important to let go of your worries.
And even if those worries do come true, if you’ve done everything you could, you’ll likely be able to accept that it would have turned out that way no matter what you did.
Every event has meaning. The work of life is to understand that meaning.Suzanne Somers
There are times when, amid the daily rush of work and life, we ask ourselves what we want to do and how we want to live.
In such moments, a quote from Suzanne Somers, an American entrepreneur and actress, can nourish a tired heart.
When things are hard, thinking that this experience will surely help your future self can lift your spirits and spark new thoughts.
Because she endured breast cancer and continued to show a forward-looking way of life, her words may be all the more empowering.
All misfortunes are nothing but stepping stones to the future.Thoreau
When something unfortunate happens, it can feel like the rest of your life will be nothing but bad.
This quote shines a warm path of light into such a darkened heart.
What counts as misfortune differs from person to person, but in many cases we imagine failure or setback.
Things don’t go smoothly, unforeseen mishaps occur… By seeing them as stepping stones to the future, we can keep facing forward without giving up.
That’s what Thoreau’s words teach us.
If we think of misfortune as a step toward the next stage, we can surely take it in a positive light.
If you keep looking down, you won’t be able to find a rainbow.Sir Charles Spencer “Charlie” Chaplin
When we’re feeling down, we tend to look down…
This is a famous quote by Chaplin that I’d like you to remember at such times.
Rainbows are said to be a sign of good luck, and seeing one makes you feel fortunate, doesn’t it? In this quote, he encourages us to keep looking forward while reminding us not to miss the rainbow.
Rather than a blunt “Do your best,” it resonates precisely because it uses a gentle, indirect expression—“missing the rainbow.” It’s a quote that feels like someone quietly sitting beside you in support.

No one anywhere becomes happy through envy.Baltasar Gracián
Everyone feels envy from time to time.
But when it turns into jealousy and makes you hostile toward others, you may end up pushing your own happiness farther away.
Comparing yourself with others isn’t bad, but harboring ill feelings just because you can’t be like them is misplaced.
Constant jealousy wears down your heart and keeps you from seeing your own strengths.
Keep this quote by the philosopher Baltasar Gracián close to your heart, and keep pursuing challenges that lead to your own happiness, not to defeating someone else.
