"A man is not finished when he is defeated. He is finished when he quits." ~ Richard M. Nixon
I don't
know if any of you followed the state elections that took place sometime back
in a few states like Goa, U.P. etc. What caught my eye was the response Rahul Gandhi, the Congress candidate who stood for the U.P. elections, gave to his
loss: He said, “Blame is mine. It's the mood for the SP. A good lesson for me; I
will think about this defeat. But the result is not good."
Not only
does he accept responsibility for the loss but he goes on to say that this
whole process was a good lesson for him and that he would think about the loss.
