( Decca Recording Company when rejecting The Beatles, 1962 )
“ You won’t go anywhere, kid. Better going back with your previous job, as a truck driver “
( Jimmy Denny, Grand Ole Orpy manager when kicking out Elvis Presley after a show at 1954 )
“ Just learn to be a secretary or get married “

Well , all of us know what happened then with the Zeros. They’ve got their popularity boost and reach their dream. Many heart stabbing words come to us, to stop teaching, to stop blogging, said that you’re nothing, you’re not a good teacher, you talk to slow, you’re ugly, you can’t be with kid, you don’t have talent, etc. But the one who know our future only God, and the one who decide to walk on or just sit is us. We can learn to get better and better until become the best.
I translate the sentences from Indonesian language so it maybe a bit different from the real sentences ( if you found it somewhere ).
