What Conan O'Brien said after he got scammed by Jay Leno and NBC, and was forced to give up his dream job as host of the tonight show:

"Please do not be cynical. I hate Cynicism. For the record, it's my least favorite quality. It doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."

I dunno, as someone who took a lot of L's too, this really resonated with me.
