Remember that failure is an event, not a person.

You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in the costume of failure.

Failure is a detour, not a dead-end street.

The season of failure is the best time for sowing the seeds of success.

The failure of women to have reached positions of leadership has been due in large part to social and professional discrimination.

The failure of the system to deal quickly was attributable to Nixon's lying, stonewalling and refusal to come clean. So it took 26 months for the final truth to be known.

Nixon's grand mistake was his failure to understand that Americans are forgiving, and if he had admitted error early and apologized to the country, he would have escaped.

If Liberia has failed, then, it is no evidence of the failure of the Negro in government. It is merely evidence of the failure of slavery.

Success is never final, failure is never fatal. It's courage that counts.

Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.

I was never afraid of failure after that because, I think, coming that close to death you get kissed. With the years, the actual experience of course fades, but the flavor of it doesn't. I just had a real sense of what choice do I have but to live fully?

I don't believe in failure. It is not failure if you enjoyed the process.

Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another steppingstone to greatness.

Success is simply a matter of luck. Ask any failure.

If those committed to the quest fail, they will be forgiven. When lost, they will find another way. The moral imperative of humanism is the endeavor alone, whether successful or not, provided the effort is honorable and failure memorable.
