Failure is not our only punishment for laziness there is also the success of others.

The great question is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with failure.

If you're not failing every now and again, it's a sign you're not doing anything very innovative.

Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed on an equal or greater benefit.

Failure is more frequently from want of energy than want of capital.

Outward failure may be a manifested variant of inward success.

Do not let your ambitions become a sanctuary for your failures.

Even when you have doubts, take that step. Take chances. Mistakes are never a failure - they can be turned into wisdom.

You can't be afraid of failure and you can't be afraid of success, because either one gets in the way of your work.

Success needs no explanation. Failure does not have one that matters.
