Quotes by Peter Jones

“Real failure’, so they say, is not ‘the falling down’. Real failure is ‘not getting up again’.”

“Boxing Day is a little like being a four-year-old for a day. It releases you from thinking about the future or the past. For twenty-four hours everything else is on hold. If you do Boxing Day properly you should feel like you’ve had a mini holiday – by the end of a Boxing Day you should feel rested, and energised, and happy.”
― Peter Jones, How to do Everything and Be Happy
