About This Quote

In the words of Vincent Van Gogh, "Success is far more perilous than failure. You've got to be doubly strong and watchful and wary." This quote is a reminder that success can be dangerous. People often have trouble handling great success because they have trouble handling failure. They forget how to be humble and they forget what it's like to feel fear.
