Failure doesn't mean you are a failure... it just means you haven't succeeded yet. Failure is a detour, not a dead-end street.

Failure is not a destination; it's an invitation to unforeseen VICTORIES.

In all failures, the beginning is certainly the half of the whole.

Faith as tiny as a grain of sand allows us to move mountains.

You know, failure hurts. Any kind of failure stings. If you live in the sting, you will - undoubtedly - fail. My way of getting past the sting is to say no, I'm just not going to let this get me down.

Loosing is part of winning. You will have to walk through the shadow of failure to get to he winning side.

It is possible to draw a straight line with a crooked pencil.

Greatness comes only to those who seek not how to avoid obstacles, but how to overcome them.

I think no matter what or no matter who you are you're always going to get some type of negativity, whatever that may be.

Ah, that 'if.' But it's of no use to despond. I can but do that, when I have tried everything and failed, and even then it won't serve me much.

Despite our fears and worries, and they are very real to all of us, life continues — it goes on. In these three words I can sum up everything I have learned in my 80 years about life — it goes on.
