I am being bombed by questions of all kinds. i will try to be very concise and try to explain to the american people. we had a great number of mistakes in the economic fleld, naturally. i am not the critic. it is fidel castro, the one who has criticized repeatedly the mistakes we have made, and he explained why we have made them. we did not have a previous preparation. we made mistakes in agriculture. we made mistakes in industry. all these mistakes are being settled now.

Be proud of your mistakes. well, proud may not be exactly the right word, but respect them, treasure them, be kind to them, learn from them. and, more than that, and more important than that, make them. make mistakes. make great mistakes, make wonderful mistakes, make glorious mistakes. better to make a hundred mistakes than to stare at a blank piece of paper too scared to do anything wrong.

Stop watering things that were never meant to grow in your life. water what works, what's good, what's right. stop playing around with those dead bones and stuff you can't fix, its over...leave it alone! you're coming into a season of greatness. if you water what's alive and divine, you will see harvest like you've never seen before. stop wasting water on dead issues, dead relationships, dead people, a dead past. no matter how much you water concrete, you can't grow a garden.

Dakota tribal wisdom says that when you're on a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. of course, there are other strategies. you can change riders. you can get a committee to study the dead horse. you can benchmark how other companies ride dead horses. you can declare that it's cheaper to feed a dead horse. you can harness several dead horses together. but after you've tried all these things, you're still going to have to dismount.

Sometimes people leave you halfway through the wood. others may decieve you - you decide what's good. you decide alone, but no one is alone. people make mistakes. fathers, mothers, people make mistakes, holding to their own, thinking they're alone. honor their mistakes. fight for their mistakes. witches can be right. giants can be good. you decide what's right. you decide what's good.
