Failure

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



Best Quotes about Failure

1.
Failure is only postponed success as long as courage coaches ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory.
Kaufman, Herbert

2.
The season of failure is the best time for sowing the seeds of success.
Yogananda, Paramahansa

3.
What is defeat? Nothing but education. Nothing but the first step to something better.
Phillips, Wendell

4.
Failure is not an option.
Movie, Apollo 13

5.
If you're willing to fail interestingly, you tend to succeed interestingly.
Edward Albee

6.
When you stand at the edge of the cliff, jump to fly, not to fall.

7.
To win you've got to stay in the game.
Bristol, Claude M.

8.
I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom.
Patton, George S.

9.
Losing is a part of winning.
Munro, Dick

10.
Everything ultimately fails, for we die, and that is either the penultimate failure or our most enigmatical achievement.
Dahlberg, Edward

11.
Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. You don't fail overnight. Instead, failure is a few errors in judgment, repeated every day.
Rohn, Jim

12.
A failure is a man who has blundered, but is not able to cash in on the experience.
Hubbard, Elbert

13.
If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

14.
If there exists no possibility of failure, then victory is meaningless.
Schuller, Robert H.

15.
Failures are like skinned knees, painful but superficial.
Perot, H. Ross

16.
No failure in America, whether of love or money, is ever simple; it is always a kind of betrayal, of a mass of shadowy, shared hopes.
Marcus, Greil

17.
The glory is not in never failing, but in rising every time you fall.

18.
A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed was not strong enough.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

19.
Do not look where you fell, but where you slipped.
Proverb, African

20.
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

21.
If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure.

22.
Misfortunes one can endure -- they come from outside, they are accidents. But to suffer for one's own faults -- Ah! there is the sting of life.
Wilde, Oscar

23.
If you've never failed you've never tried.

24.
Some defeats are only installments to victory.
Riis, Jacob

25.
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.

26.
We need to teach the highly educated man that it is not a disgrace to fail and that he must analyze every failure to find its cause. He must learn how to fail intelligently, for failing is one of the greatest arts in the world.
Kettering, Charles F.

27.
Everyone pushes a falling fence.
Proverb, Chinese

28.
An inventor fails 999 times, and if he succeeds once, he's in. He treats his failures simply as practice shots.

29.
You can always tell who the pioneers are because they have arrows in their back and are lying face down in the dirt.

30.
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.

31.
You don't drown by falling in the water; you drown by staying there.
Cole, Edwin Louis

32.
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.

33.
I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward.
Edison, Thomas A.

34.
When we can begin to take our failures seriously, it means we are ceasing to be afraid of them. It is of immense importance to learn to laugh at ourselves.
Mansfield, Katherine

35.
However things may seem, no evil thing is success and no good thing is failure.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

36.
People in their handlings of affairs often fail when they are about to succeed. If one remains as careful at the end as he was at the beginning, there will be no failure.
Lao-Tzu

37.
The man who fails because he aims astray or because he does not aim at all is to be found everywhere.
Swinnerton, Frank

38.
Failure -- The man who can tell others what to do and how to do it, but never does it himself.
Hubbard, Elbert

39.
Everyone should fail in a big way at least once before reaching forty.
Neuharth, Al

40.
The moment avoiding failure becomes your motivation, you're down the path of inactivity. You stumble only if you're moving.
Goizueta, Roberto

41.
There is no loneliness greater than the loneliness of a failure. The failure is a stranger in his own house.
Hoffer, Eric

42.
It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.
Gore Vidal

43.
There is but one cause of human failure. And that is man's lack of faith in his true Self.
James, William

44.
There is only one failure in life possible, and that is not to be true to the best one knows.
Eliot, George

45.
Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.
Waitley, Denis

46.
I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.
Sophocles

47.
Use the losses and failures of the past as a reason for action, not inaction.
Givens, Charles J.

48.
There is no such thing as failure. There are only results.
Robbins, Anthony

49.
Edison failed 10, 000 times before he made the electric light. Do not be discouraged if you fail a few times.
Hill, Napoleon

50.
Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid.
John Keats
