Failure Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Failure

1.
Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
Ruth, Babe

2.
Many a man never fails because he never tries.
Macewan, Norman

3.
Failure is in a sense the highway to success, as each discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true.
Keats, John

4.
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

5.
Failure is not an option.
Movie, Apollo 13

6.
Believe and act as if it were impossible to fail.
Kettering, Charles F.

7.
Your failures won't hurt you until you start blaming them on others.

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.
Failure is not the worst thing in the world -- the very worst is not to try

10.
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.

11.
We must expect to fail... but fail in a learning posture, determined no to repeat the mistakes, and to maximize the benefits from what is learned in the process.
Engstrom, Ted W.

12.
Failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. I stopped pretending to myself that I was anything other than I was and began diverting all my energy into finishing the only work that mattered to me.
J.K. Rowling

13.
All honor to him who shall win the prize. The world has cried for a thousand years. But to him who tries and fails and dies, I give great honor and glory and tears.
Miller, Joaquin

14.
It is for want of application, rather than of means that people fail,
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

15.
The surest way to fail is not to determine to succeed.
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley

16.
Failure, then, failure! so the world stamps us at every turn. We strew it with our blunders, our misdeeds, our lost opportunities, with all the memorials of our inadequacy to our vocation. And with what a damning emphasis does it then blot us out! No easy fine, no mere apology or formal expiation, will satisfy the world's demands, but every pound of flesh exacted is soaked with all its blood. The subtlest forms of suffering known to man are connected with the poisonous humiliations incidental to these results.
James, William

17.
Accept failure as a normal part of living. View it as part of the process of exploring your world; make a note of its lessons and move on.
Hobson, Tom

18.
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

19.
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

20.
If there exists no possibility of failure, then victory is meaningless.
Schuller, Robert H.

21.
Nothing has a stronger influence psychologically on their environment and especially on their children than the unlived life of the parent.
Carl Jung

22.
Everything ultimately fails, for we die, and that is either the penultimate failure or our most enigmatical achievement.
Dahlberg, Edward

23.
Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.
Wooden, John

24.
There is only one failure in life possible, and that is not to be true to the best one knows.
Eliot, George

25.
A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed was not strong enough.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

26.
You can't be a winner and be afraid to lose.
Lynch, Charles

27.
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

28.
Silicon Valley is a graveyard. Failure is Silicon Valley's greatest strength.

29.
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

30.
Why is it so painful to watch a person sink? Because there is something unnatural in it, for nature demands personal progress, evolution, and every backward step means wasted energy.
Strindberg, J. August

31.
There is much to be said for failure. It is more interesting than success.
Beerbohm, Sir Max

32.
Anyone seen on a bus after age thirty has been a failure in life.
Loelia, Duchess

33.
I have not failed. I've just found 10, 000 ways that won't work.
Edison, Thomas A.

34.
Some defeats are only installments to victory.
Riis, Jacob

35.
Failures to heroic minds are the stepping stones to success.
Haliburton, Thomas C.

36.
To win you've got to stay in the game.
Bristol, Claude M.

37.
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

38.
It doesn't matter where you are coming from. All that matters is where you are going.
Tracy, Brian

39.
The only failure one should fear, is not hugging to the purpose they see as best.
Eliot, George

40.
You don't drown by falling in the water; you drown by staying there.
Cole, Edwin Louis

41.
The wise man realistically accepts as part of life and builds a philosophy to meet them and make the most of them. He lives on the principle of nothing attempted, nothing gained and is resolved that if he fails he is going to fail while trying to succeed.
Peterson, Wilferd A.

42.
To fail is a natural consequence of trying, To succeed takes time and prolonged effort in the face of unfriendly odds. To think it will be any other way, no matter what you do, is to invite yourself to be hurt and to limit your enthusiasm for trying again.
Viscott, David

43.
If you are doing your best, you will not have to worry about failure.
Hillyer, Robert S.

44.
I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.
Sophocles

45.
Failure is good. It's fertilizer. Everything I've learned about coaching, I've learned from making mistakes.
Pitino, Rick

46.
If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

47.
Failure does not count. If you accept this, you'll be successful. What causes most people to fail is that after one failure, they'll stop trying.
Burford, Frank

48.
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

49.
There is something good in all seeming failures. You are not to see that now. Time will reveal it. Be patient.
Sivananda, Sri Swami

50.
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
