“Try it. You don't have to do it ever again if you don't want to. But try it once. Try everything once.”

“That's why I love spiders. 'If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again.”

“Once you've chosen a man, don't try to change him', I wrote with more confidence. 'It can't be done. More important-don't let him try to change you.”

“Just because you fall once, doesn't mean you're fall at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always trust yourself, because if you don't then who will??”

“When I was a little boy I used to repeat: "If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again."”

“If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.”

“If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool about it.”

“I guess you have to try things once in a while… just once”

“If you try to use your head to think about things, people don't want to have anything to do with you”

“It's not to pretend you can do everything, but if people like you – in the sense of admiring or having respect for what you are trying to do – then they will understand the odd blemish. If people don't like you, and lack confidence in what you are trying to do, they won't forgive you anything.”
