Don't they always go from bad to worse? There's no turning back--your old self rejects you, and shuts you out. ~Lilly Bart
You really have to be some kind of a creep for a dog to reject you.
Every rejection is incremental payment on your dues that in some way will be translated back into your work.
There's nothing like rejection to make you do an inventory of yourself.
I'm a survivor in a business that constantly rejects you.
Destroy your primitivity, and you will most probably get along well in the world, maybe achieve great success--but Eternity will reject you. Follow up your primitivity, and you will be shipwrecked in temporality, but accepted by Eternity.
There's nothing you could really avoid about giving yourself to somebody who ultimately rejects you. That's just life.
Look at 'American Idol,' which I don't look at. Those winners haven't become household names except for Jennifer Hudson, and she was a reject. You can't aim to be a household name. You just have to be successful.
