Keep Moving Forward

I watched Meet the Robinsons and I recommend it. Why?? Read the striking lines / quotes of the characters below

-----

Lucille Krunklehorn: Hey, you never know, one of your students may invent the next integrated circuit, or microprocessor, or integrated circuit.

(I wish teachers and professors are like Ms. Krunklehorn.)

-----

Wilbur: I never thought my dad would be my best friend.

(Yea!!! I love this line.)

-----

Lewis: And what if I can't fix this, what are we going to do?

Wilbur: Keep moving forward.

Lewis: Why do you keep saying that? And don't just say keep moving forward!

Wilbur: It's my dad's motto.

Lewis: Why would his motto be keep moving forward?

Wilbur: It's what he does.

(Actions speak louder than words. Practice what you preach.)

-----

Lewis: Look, I'm sorry your life turned out so bad. But don't blame me you messed it up yourself. You just focused on the bad stuff when all you had to do was... let go of the past and keep moving forward...

(Be positive kid!! It's worth it!)

-----

Uncle Gaston: If I gave up every time I failed, I would have never invented the meatball cannon.

Grandpa Bud: If I gave up every time I failed, I would never have invented my fireproof pants!

(Patience is a virtue.)

-----

And of course the CBB (Closing Bill Board) statement from Walt Disney himself...

"Around here, however, we don't look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious... and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths."

Comment:

So...you failed? It's wow!! It's excellent!! From failing, we learn. From success, not much. Like what Thomas Edison said, he didn't failed, he just found 10,000 ways that didn't work.

I'm not even one-fourth of Thomas Edison's optimism. So my new motto:

KEEP MOVING FORWARD!!!
