    "Angel Simal has done something unusual, which I found very interesting: he's written an entire work on how we can embrace our failures - both in our shows and in our thinking - and learn from them. It's a worthy task and I found the advice stimulating and useful." - Joshua Jay

    "To mess up or not to mess up? That is the question. To mess up elegantly, to mess up deliberately, to mess up constantly, to mess up happily. Ángel Simal, thinker and magician’s lifeguard, tells us that mistakes are part of our lives. Hidden or at our sight, failure is always ready to bump into us. Not even the more prepared artists are safe!”Jaime Figueroa
