"I can handle failing, but I can't handle not trying".

Failure has been correctly identified as the line of least persistence.

Failure is not having the courage to try, nothing more an nothing less.

A failure is a man who has blundered but is not able to cash in on the experience.

It is not in the nature of man to accept permanent failure.

A failure is a man who has blundered, but is not able to cash in the experience.

Failure is inevitable. Success is elusive.

Without patience I could never have succeeded.

It is impossible to succeed without failing.

There's no success like failure, and failure's no success at all.

Pretense cannot sustain blind power.

If failure is not an option, then neither is success.

"Trying to find permanence is impossible, and we ultimately learn that there is no safety in trying to "keep" everything. And there is no safety in trying to prevent loss."

It does not matter how frequently something succeeds if failure is too costly to bear.
