All that is necessary to break the spell of inertia and frustration is this: act as if it were impossible to fail.

A first failure is often a blessing.

Failure sometimes enlarges the spirit. You have to fall back upon humanity and God.

Every failure teaches a man something, if he will but learn.

Success isn't permanent, and failure isn't fatal.

But success and failure are of no account. They are God's concern, not mine.

Apparent failure may hold in its rough shell the germs of a success that will blossom in time, and bear fruit throughout eternity.

It is often the failure who is the pioneer in new lands, new undertakings, and new forms of expression.

We need to teach the highly educated person 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.

There is always another chance ... This thing that we call "failure" is not the falling down, but the staying down.
