There are no failures, just experiences and your reactions to them.

Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul.

The attempt to avoid failure makes failure more likely.

If you aren’t experiencing failure, then you are making a far worse mistake: You are being driven by the desire to avoid it.

Mistakes aren’t a necessary evil. They aren’t evil at all. They are an inevitable consequence of doing something new (and, as such, should be seen as valuable; without them, we’d have no originality).

To fail is to give up. But you are in the midst of a moving process. Nothing fails then. All goes on. Work is done. If good, you learn from it. If bad, you learn even more.

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There’s no point in being a damn fool about it.

The trick is to take advantage of the particular details of the mess you’ve made, so that your next attempt will be informed by it and not just another blind stab in the dark. t

With a hint of good judgment, to fear nothing, not failure or suffering or even death, indicates that you value life the most. You live to the extreme; you push limits; you spend your time building legacies. Those do not die.

Bad times have a scientific value. These are occasions a good learner would not miss. 

If I had to live my life again, I’d make the same mistakes, only sooner.

You’ve got to experience failure to understand that you can survive it.

I’ve come to realize that all my past failures and frustrations were actually laying the foundation for the understanding that have created the new level of living I now enjoy.

There’s meaning in every failure. Find it.

Failure is nothing more than learning how to win.

Blame is not for failure. It is for failing to help or ask for help.

Mistakes and failures are precisely your means of education. They tell you about your own inadequacies.

We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.

Once we realize that imperfect understanding is the human condition there is no shame in being wrong, only in failing to correct our mistakes.

People who have the ability to fail in public under their own names actually gain a lot of power. 

Experience is merely the name men gave to their mistakes.

What would you be glad you did – even if you failed?

An action committed in anger, is an action doomed to failure.

Keep your head up in failure, and your head down in success.
