Sturm’s “Perfection Unattainable”
"Alhana looked up into Sturm’s grieved face and saw etched there pride, nobility, strict inflexible discipline, constant striving for perfection – perfection unattainable. And thus the deep sorrow in his eyes." – Weis and Hickman Dragons of Winter Night
Yeah, I totally get the striving for unattainable perfection part and the direct link it has to deep sorrow.

I think we all want to do the best job possible and pursue excellence in whatever we undertake, but learning to be happy with a modest level of achievement is the key. Sometimes, if you’re really lucky, you shoot for the stars and actually get to the moon, but more often than not, we fall short of our goals. Setting the bar realistically and understanding that there should be some level of joy, not sorrow, in busting your ass but ultimately falling short is essential to finding happiness.
