More From Bob Ross

So often, we blame other people when, really, the problem is right down in here. i'm not happy. i don't know what's wrong. if i just had another job, i could be happy. if i just get married, i would be happy. well if i just wasn't married, i would be happy. well, if i just had some kids, i'll be happy. i'll be happy when these kids finally grow up and get out of here. if i had a bigger house, i would be happy. well, i got a big house. now if i just had a maid to clean, i'd be happy. well, now if i just had a maid i could get along with better, i'd be happy.
Happiness Jobs Growing Up
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.
Mistake Important Be Kind
Along the (writing) way accidents happen, detours get taken... but these are not "divine" accidents; i don't believe in those. i believe you have constructive accidents en route through a novel only because you have mapped a clear way. if you have confidence that you have a clear direction to take, you always have confidence to explore other ways; if they prove to be mere digressions, you'll recognize that and make the necessary revisions. the more you know about a book, the freer you can be to fool around. the less you know, the tighter you get.
Believe Book Taken
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.

Happy accidents are real gifts, and they can open the door to a future that didn't even exist. it's kind of nice sometimes to set up something to encourage or allow happy accidents to happen.
Real Nice Doors
Oh god, are there so many of them in our land! students who can’t be happy until they’ve graduated, servicemen who can’t be happy until they are discharged, single folks who can’t be happy until they’ve found a mate, workers who can’t be happy until they’ve retired, adolescents who aren’t happy until they’re grown, ill people who aren’t happy until they’re well, failures who aren’t happy until they succeed, restless who can’t wait until they get out of town, and in most cases, vice versa, people waiting, waiting for the world to begin.

While the farmer holds the title to the land, actually, it belongs to all the people because civilization itself rests upon the soil.

You can't legitimately kick on income tax, for it's on what you have made. you have already made it. but, look at land, farms, homes, stores, vacant lots. you pay year after year on them whether you make it or not.
