"It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life." Captain Jean-Luc Picard

This quote is about George Bailey:

Saves his brother's life, gets rewarded with deafness in one ear

Saves a child and Mr. Gower, gets rewarded with a beating

Steps up to settle his father's business, gets rewarded with having to stay to run the company

Lets his brother go to college in his place, gets rewarded with his brother getting a job offer so he can't take over the family business while George gets his turn

Gets married and finally has the chance to travel on his honeymoon, gets rewarded with a bank run that requires the honeymoon funds to sort out

Runs the business and improves the lives of so many around him, gets rewarded with an embezzlement charge and certain jail time

Meets an angel while in the grip of despair, gets rewarded with more torments as he's taken to a world where he has nowhere to turn for comfort or even a warm bed for the night

All those who love him rally to save him, but he still never gets to follow his dream of seeing the world outside this town

 l want to do something big and something important. You know, George, l feel that, in a small way, we're doing something important, satisfying a fundamental urge. lt's deep in the race for a man to want his own roof and walls and fireplace. And we're helping him get those things. [...] Pop, you want a shock? l think you're a great guy.

Things I Loved About Fleabag (2016):

The careful balance of spiralling and sincerity that keeps you rooting for resolution and relief, despite the show intentionally framing itself around grief

The way that it is clear based on the way that they talk about her that Fleabag is a great deal like her mother (her off-colour jokes, her charisma, even hints of difficult friendships through the Godmother) but they don't have anyone make that comparison until the last episode of S2, with, "You are the way you are because of [your mother]" and the look of surprise on Fleabag's face when she hears it

"Don't make me an optimist; you will ruin my life," being such a telling line, because as you fall in love with the Priest, and Fleabag, you want to believe that things will work themselves out

The love in Claire's line to Fleabag, "The only person I'd run through an airport for is you," and the delightful contrary optimism of her deciding to go to the airport anyway

The revelation that Boo had offered to take Fleabag's love for her mother, intertwining both losses

The way that the Priest not only breaks through the carefully constructed narrative relationship that Fleabag has with the viewer, but also himself directly looks toward the audience on a separate beat as he tries to understand her more ("You don't like answering questions, do you?")

The entire sequence of the last few scenes, "Being a romantic takes a hell of a lot of hope," to "I love you." "It'll pass," to Fleabag walking around with a statue that is, in some ways now, a physical representation of the love she is carrying around. Because while the show is about grief, and love, it doesn't feel like it is asking you to overcome those things, but to learn to live with them while moving forward
