Best Quotes about Failure

1.
Defeat should never be a source of discouragement, but rather a fresh stimulus.
South, Bishop Robert

2.
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.

3.
Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong.
Fitzgerald, Ella

4.
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.

5.
It takes a lot more energy to fail than to succeed, since it takes a lot of concentrated energy to hold on to beliefs that don't work.
Gillies, Jerry

6.
A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed was not strong enough.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

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

8.
The world itself is pregnant with failure, is the perfect manifestation of imperfection, of the consciousness of failure.
Miller, Henry

9.
It is for want of application, rather than of means that people fail,
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

10.
If you're not big enough to lose, you're not big enough to win
Reuther, Walter

11.
Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another steppingstone to greatness.
Winfrey, Oprah

12.
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

13.
Success is 99 percent failure.
Honda, Soichiro

Past failures are guideposts to success.

15.
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.

16.
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.

17.
You can fail so very often. But you are not a failure until you give up.

18.
Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.
Carver, George Washington

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

20.
You are beaten to earth? Well, well, what's that? Come up with a smiling face, It's nothing against you to fall down flatBut to lie there-that's a disgrace.
Cooke, E. V.

21.
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

22.
Turn your scars into stars
Schuller, Robert H.

23.
The only failure one should fear, is not hugging to the purpose they see as best.
Eliot, George

24.
You must think of failure and defeat as the springboards to new achievements or to the next level of accomplishment.
Brown, Les

25.
Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.
Wooden, John

26.
There is no such thing as failure. There are only results.
Robbins, Anthony

27.
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

28.
If one does not fail at times, then one has not challenged himself.
Porsche, Dr.

Whewell, William

Barton, Bruce

34.
There is but one cause of human failure. And that is man's lack of faith in his true Self.

If we don't see a failure as a challenge to modify our approach, but rather as a problem with ourselves, as a personality defect, we will immediately feel overwhelmed.
Robbins, Anthony

Bonaparte, Napoleon

Remember that your failures are the seeds of your most glorious successes. Be sad if you must, but don't despair.

40.
If you are doing your best, you will not have to worry about failure.
Hillyer, Robert S.

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.
I never see failure as failure, but only as the game I must play and win.
Hopkins, Tom
