"If we are going to achieve our purpose in life, we must be willing to fall out of grace and accept its lessons. When we feel righteous about ourselves, or deny our brokenness, we are fighting against the higher states of grace that await us." 
"Failure is built into grace. You cannot have one without the other. It's like two sides of a single coin. Everyone who has achieved a state of grace is certain at some point to fall, and to have fallen many times before."
"Every successful person, everyone you respect, will tell you that they have mountains of failure behind them…
When we are in grace, we begin to take things for granted and we actually stop working on ourselves. Falling out of grace shakes us up."

"It reconnects us to the larger universe in order for us to see ourselves anew. It forces us to rediscover where our true center begins & learn what needs to be set aside"—Sobonfu Somé
