“We are not to be defined by what we go through. Should a baby be defined by the fact, should I be defining my son now at 23 by the fact that he used to poop his diapers? No, no, you don't get defined by that. No, a girl used to poop his diaper, but it don't get defined by that. No, of course you say, but it doesn't get defined by that because that is a process. So a mistake, a loss of a job, a loss of a spot, it's still all a process. It's not defining. In fact, actually, if anything, it's refining. It's refining you. It's forth as gold.”
