Sometimes I feel my whole life has been one big rejection.

Rejection just motivates me to keep trying and to try to do better.

These rejections hurt me terribly because I felt it was my life that was being rejected.

In my early career I was like a goldfish. Rejection didn't affect me; I'd just forget how bad it was and keep going back for more.

I think I've always been somebody, since the deaths of my father and brother, who was afraid to hope. So, I was more prepared for failure and for rejection than for success.

I've always hated rejection; I only want to go out there when I know I've got it right.

Rejection is the one constant of human experience.

I still get rejections - frequently - and my goal isn't to never fail, to never be turned down, but simply to succeed more often than I don't. And in order to do that, I have to constantly put myself out there, to judgment, critique, and rejection.

We all learn lessons in life. Some stick, some don't. I have always learned more from rejection and failure than from acceptance and success.

The rejection that we all take and the sadness and the aggravation and the loss of jobs and all of the things that we live through in our lives, without a sense of humor, I don't know how people make it.
