Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for November 15, 2014

Hasn’t stopped [insert political figure here]. There. I pre-empted about 38% of today’s comments.

“A day without sunshine is like… night.” (Steve Martin)

Pig seems unusually clear-headed and insightful today! Or is it just me?

A succinct analysis.

My plan was to be a failure and many will attest to my success.

Success is 99% inspiration and 1% perspiration. Or vice versa.

“It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.”

I just never got the right job, 142 at last count.

Trying is the first step towards failure………

I wonder which TV show Pig got that from.

Sorta like FDR’s “All we have to fear….” remark. To the point and very deep (if you think about it).

Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try.

I am an inveterate comic reader. It is rare for me to LOL. This one did it to me.

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There’s no point in being a damn fool about it.—W. C. Fields

Define success.

Pig for CEO! The common wisdom now in many business management circles is that the best training for success is failure. I’m not so sure. Sounds to me like a lame excuse, but if one thinks about it a good explanation for a lot.See: http://tinyurl.com/pjsgwuk

Oh good gravy, then there is this:Fast Company: Failure Has Never Been More Successful – “Foul”-Up Nightshttp://tinyurl.com/nfc5tmgPig would have to be the featured speaker!

This reminds me of the early years of the strip. Just Rat and Pig talking. I like that.
