Failure

We stumble and fall constantly even when we are most enlightened. But when we are in true spiritual darkness, we do not even know that we have fallen.
- Merton, Thomas
Failure Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Failure

1.
There are few things more dreadful than dealing with a man who knows he is going under, in his own eyes, and in the eyes of others. Nothing can help that man. What is left of that man flees from what is left of human attention.
Baldwin, James

2.
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

3.
You must think of failure and defeat as the springboards to new achievements or to the next level of accomplishment.
Brown, Les

4.
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

5.
You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.
Disney, Walt

6.
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

7.
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.

8.
Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory.

9.
However things may seem, no evil thing is success and no good thing is failure.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

10.
People don't fail, they give up

11.
I never see failure as failure, but only as the game I must play and win.
Hopkins, Tom

12.
A failure will not appear until a unit has passed final inspection.
Bloch, Arthur

13.
There is but one cause of human failure. And that is man's lack of faith in his true Self.
James, William

14.
The boy who is going to make a great man must not make up his mind merely to overcome a thousand obstacles, but to win in spite of a thousand repulses and defeats.
Roosevelt, Theodore

15.
Failure too is a form of death...
Greene, Graham

16.
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

17.
Failure is not an option.
Movie, Apollo 13

18.
If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.
Bartkowski, Steve

19.
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.

20.
Every failure is a step to success.
Whewell, William

21.
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

22.
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.

23.
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

24.
They fail, and they alone, who have not striven.
Aldrich, Thomas B.

25.
Everyone should fail in a big way at least once before reaching forty.
Neuharth, Al

26.
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

27.
All human beings have failings, all human beings have needs and temptations and stresses. Men and women who live together through long years get to know one another's failings; but they also come to know what is worthy of respect and admiration in those they live with and in themselves. If at the end one can say, This man used to the limit the powers that God granted him; he was worthy of love and respect and of the sacrifices of many people, made in order that he might achieve what he deemed to be his task, then that life has been lived well and there are no regrets.
Roosevelt, Eleanor

28.
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

29.
Men are born to succeed, not to fail.
Thoreau, Henry David

30.
My downfall raises me to infinite heights.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

31.
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

32.
Edison failed 10, 000 times before he made the electric light. Do not be discouraged if you fail a few times.
Hill, Napoleon

33.
There is no such thing as accidental failure. All failure is at least half imposed.

34.
Failure is nature's plan to prepare you for great responsibilities.
Hill, Napoleon

35.
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

36.
It is for want of application, rather than of means that people fail,
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

37.
The moment avoiding failure becomes your motivation, you're down the path of inactivity. You stumble only if you're moving.
Goizueta, Roberto

38.
On this path effort never goes to waste, and there is no failure. Even a little effort toward spiritual awareness will protect you from the greatest fear.
Bhagavad Gita

39.
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

40.
Who has never tasted what is bitter does not know what is sweet.
Proverb, German

41.
Many a man never fails because he never tries.
Macewan, Norman

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

43.
There is no such thing as failure. There are only results.
Robbins, Anthony

I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed; and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times I can fail and keep on trying.
Hopkins, Tom

45.
If you're willing to fail interestingly, you tend to succeed interestingly.
Edward Albee

Nixon, Richard M.

48.
Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
Ruth, Babe

49.
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.

50.
