There is not a fiercer hell than failure in a great object.
John Keats (1795-1821) English Poet.
We are all of us failures at least, the best of us are.
James M.Barrie (1860-1937) British playwright.
Our business in this world is not to succeed, but to continue to fail, in good spirits.
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish author.
I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure which is: Try to please everybody.
Herbert B.Swope (1882-1958) American journalist.
There are two kinds of men who never amount to much: those who cannot do what they are told, and those who can do nothing else.
There is something distinguished about even his failures; they sink not trivially but with a certain air of majesty; like a great ship, its flags flying, full of holes.
He was a self made man who owed his lack of success to nobody.
Joseph Heller (b.1923) American novelist.
It is mighty presumptuous on your part to suppose your small failures of so much consequence that you must talk about them.
Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894) American writer, physician.
A man’s life manifests itself as a failure; what he has attempted he will not achieve. He will not even succeed in thinking what he wants to think or in feeling what he wants to feel.
Jean Paul Sartr (1905-1980) French philosopher, author.
Everyone is born a king and most people die in exile.
Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) Anglo – Irish author.
Everyone pushes a falling fence.
Chinese proverb.
We mount to heaven mostly on the ruins of our cherished schemes, finding our failures were successes.
A.B.Alcott.
Every failure is a step to success; every detection of what is false directs us toward what is true; every trial exhausts some tempting form of error. Not only so, but scarcely any attempt is entirely a failure; scarcely and theory, the result of steady thought, is altogether false; no tempting form of error is without some latent charm derived from truth.
Whewell.
Sometimes a noble failure serves the world as faithfully as a distinguished success.
Dowden.
Failure is often God’s own tool for carving some of the finest outlines in the character of his children; and, even in this life, bitter and crushing failures have often in them the germs of new and quite unimagined happiness.
T.Hodgkin.
He only is exempt from failures who makes no efforts.
Whately.
Failures 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.
Keats.
It is an awful condemnation for a man to be brought by God’s providence face to face with a great possibility of service and of blessing, and then to show himself such that God has to put him aside, and look for other instruments.
McLaren.
In the lexicon of youth, which fate reserves for a bright manhood, there is no such word as fail.
Bulwer.
They never fail who die in a great cause.
Byron.
There is only one real failure in life that is possible, and that is, not to be true to the best one knows.
Farrar.
Only the astrologer and the empiric never fail.
Willmott.
A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed was not strong enough.
Bovee.
