... but I must reluctantly observe that two causes, the abbreviation of time, and the failure of hope, will always tinge with a browner shade the evening of life. Edward Gibbon
Quentin Crisp quote: "If at first you don’t succeed, failure may be your style."
If at first you don’t succeed, failure may be your style. Quentin Crisp
If you want something you can have it, but only if you want everything that goes with it, including all the hard work and the despair, and only if you're willing to risk failure. Philip Pullman
Mark Twain quote: "No man is a failure who has friends"
No man is a failure who has friends Mark Twain
Attitude is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, money, circumstances, than failures and success, than what other people think, say, or do. It is more important than appearance, ability, or skill. It will make or break a business, a home, a friendship, an organization. The remarkable thing is I have a choice every day of what my attitude will be. I cannot change my past. I cannot change the actions of others. I cannot change the inevitable. The only... Charles R.

His failure hurt too badly for that. It was a bad equation. Best erase it and try a new one.

Robertson Davies does not say that in his Deptford Trilogy ... but he strongly hints at it. Stephen King
The Vicar’s talk was not always inspiriting: he had escaped being a Pharisee, but he had not escaped that low estimate of possibilities which we rather hastily arrive at as an inference from our own failure. George Eliot
Accustom yourself to look first to the dreadful consequences of failure; then fix your eye on the glorious prize which is before you; and when your strength begins to fail, and your spirits are well nigh exhausted, let the animating view rekindle your resolution, and call forth in renewed vigour the fainting energies of your soul. William Wilberforce
The second cause of failure to enact good stems from conflict of intention. High intelligence leads to multiplicity of interest and a sharpened capacity to foresee the consequences of any action. Will is lost in a labyrinth of hypothesis. John Fowles
Elbert Hubbard quote: "A failure is a man who has blundered but is not able to cash..."
A failure is a man who has blundered but is not able to cash in on the experience. Elbert Hubbard
Charles Dickens quote: "I must be taken as I have been made. The success is not mine,..."
I must be taken as I have been made. The success is not mine, the failure is not mine, but the two together make me. Charles Dickens
Errol Flynn quote: "Any man who dies with more than $10000 to his name is a failure."
Any man who dies with more than $10000 to his name is a failure. Errol Flynn
I feel to invite women everywhere to rise to the great potential within you. I do not ask that you reach beyond your capacity. I hope you will not nag yourselves with thoughts of failure. I hope you will not try to set goals far beyond your capacity to achieve. I hope you will simply do what you can do in the best way you know. If you do so, you will witness miracles come to pass. Gordon B. Hinckley
Zig Ziglar quote: "The chief cause of failure and unhappiness is trading what you..."
The chief cause of failure and unhappiness is trading what you want most for what you want right now Zig Ziglar
A world where a majority had imbibed the lessons implicit within tragic art would be one in which the consequences of our failures would necessarily cease to weigh upon us so heavily. Alain de Botton
