Failure Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Failure

1.
If you're not big enough to lose, you're not big enough to win
Reuther, Walter

2.
If there exists no possibility of failure, then victory is meaningless.
Schuller, Robert H.

3.
You will never stub your toe standing still. The faster you go, the more chance there is of stubbing your toe, but the more chance you have of getting somewhere.
Kettering, Charles F.

4.
The man who fails because he aims astray or because he does not aim at all is to be found everywhere.
Swinnerton, Frank

5.
Have you heard that it was good to gain the day? I also say it is good to fall, battles are lost in the same spirit in which they are won.
Walt Whitman

6.
Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.
Wooden, John

7.
We learn from failure much more than from success; we often discover what we will do by finding our what we will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.
Smiles, Samuel

8.
You can give in to the failure messages and be a bitter deadbeat of excuses. Or you can choose to be happy and positive and excited about life.
Williams, A.L.

9.
The greatest failure is a person who never admits that he can be a failure.
Weiskott, Gerald. N.

10.
A man's life is interesting primarily when he has failed -- I well know. For it's a sign that he tried to surpass himself.
Clemenceau, Georges

11.
There is no such thing as accidental failure. All failure is at least half imposed.

12.
I have always felt that although someone may defeat me, and I strike out in a ball game, the pitcher on the particular day was the best player. But I know when I see him again, I'm going to be ready for his curve ball. Failure is a part of success. There is no such thing as a bed of roses all your life. But failure will never stand in the way of success if you learn from it.
Aaron, Hank

13.
Past failures are guideposts to success.

14.
We pay a heavy price for our fear of failure. It is a powerful obstacle to growth. It assures the progressive narrowing of the personality and prevents exploration and experimentation. There is no learning without some difficulty and fumbling. If you want to keep on learning, you must keep on risking failure all your life.
Gardner, John W.

15.
The only people who never fail are those who never try.
Chase, Ilka

16.
Everything ultimately fails, for we die, and that is either the penultimate failure or our most enigmatical achievement.
Dahlberg, Edward

17.
Everyone should fail in a big way at least once before reaching forty.
Neuharth, Al

18.
In the end, the only people who fail are those who do not try.
Viscott, David

19.
You can always tell who the pioneers are because they have arrows in their back and are lying face down in the dirt.

20.
It doesn't matter where you are coming from. All that matters is where you are going.
Tracy, Brian

21.
A failure is a man who has blundered, but is not able to cash in on the experience.
Hubbard, Elbert

22.
We pay just as dearly for our triumphs as we do for our defeats. Go ahead and fail. But fail with wit, fail with grace, fail with style. A mediocre failure is as insufferable as a mediocre success. Embrace failure! Seek it out. Learn to love it. That may be the only way any of us will ever be free. Tom Robbins Before you give up hope, turn back and read the attacks that were made on Lincoln.
Barton, Bruce

23.
It is for want of application, rather than of means that people fail,
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

24.
Never give a man up until he has failed at something he likes.
Lawes, Lewis E.

25.
Believe and act as if it were impossible to fail.
Kettering, Charles F.

26.
Many men fail because they quit too soon. They lose faith when the signs are against them. They do not have the courage to hold on, to keep fighting in spite of that which seems insurmountable. If more of us would strike out and attempt the impossible, we very soon would find the truth of that old saying that nothing is impossible... abolish fear and you can accomplish anything you wish.
Welch, Dr. C. E.

27.
Ultimately, we all have to decide for ourselves what constitutes failure, but the world is quite eager to give you a set of criteria if you let it.
J.K. Rowling

28.
We often say that the biggest job we have is to teach a newly hired employee to fail intelligently... to experiment over and over again and to keep on trying and failing until he learns what will work.
Kettering, Charles F.

29.
A failure is not always a mistake, it may simply be the best one can do under the circumstances. The real mistake is to stop trying.
Skinner, B(urrhus) F(rederic)

30.
He's no failure. He's not dead yet.
George, William Lloyd

31.
The season of failure is the best time for sowing the seeds of success.
Yogananda, Paramahansa

32.
Try as hard as we may for perfection, the net result of our labors is an amazing variety of imperfectness. We are surprised at our own versatility in being able to fail in so many different ways.
Samuel McChord Crothers

33.
We all have a few failures under our belt. It's what makes us ready for the successes.
Randy K. Milholland

34.
I've come to believe that all my past failure and frustration were actually laying the foundation for the understandings that have created the new level of living I now enjoy.
Robbins, Anthony

35.
No one ever won a chess game by betting on each move. Sometimes you have to move backward to get a step forward.
Bose, Amar Gopal

36.
Who has never tasted what is bitter does not know what is sweet.
Proverb, German

37.
I cannot give the formula for success, but I can give you the formula of failure -- which is try to please everybody.
Swope, Herbert B.

38.
Failure is an event, never a person.
Brown, William D.

39.
Failure is good. It's fertilizer. Everything I've learned about coaching, I've learned from making mistakes.
Pitino, Rick

40.
There is no failure except in no longer trying. There is no defeat except from within, no insurmountable barrier except our own inherent weakness of purpose.
Hubbard, Elbert

41.
What is defeat? Nothing but education. Nothing but the first step to something better.
Phillips, Wendell

42.
A man who has committed a mistake and doesn't correct it is committing another mistake.
Confucius

43.
When someone is going downhill everyone likes to give them a kick.
Proverb

44.
There is no failure for the man who realizes his power, who never knows when he is beaten; there is no failure for the determined endeavor; the unconquerable will. There is no failure for the man who gets up every time he falls, who rebounds like a rubber ball, who persists when everyone else gives up, who pushes on when everyone else turns back.
Marden, Orison Swett

45.
To win you've got to stay in the game.
Bristol, Claude M.

46.
Losing is a part of winning.
Munro, Dick

47.
You're on the road to success when you realize that failure is only a detour.

48.
In God's world, for those who are in earnest, there is no failure. No work truly done, no word earnestly spoken, no sacrifice freely made, was ever made in vain.
Robertson, Frederick W.

49.
Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.
Carver, George Washington

50.
It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not lived at all. In which case, you've failed by default.
J.K. Rowling
