No matter how vast, how total, the failure of man here on earth, the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that, but man's front embraces the whole universe.

I have a lack of fear, whereas in the past the fear of failure was a powerful motivator. Anyway, I have great expectations for the future, but I just don't know if I'm the monarch of all I survey.

War remains the decisive human failure.

Failure is only postponed success as long as courage 'coaches' ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory.

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.

Every adversity, every failure, and every heartache, carries with it the Seed of an equivalent or greater Benefit.

However things may seem, no evil thing is success and no good thing is failure.

There is not a fiercer hell than the failure in a great object.

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.

Success is not a good teacher, failure makes you humble.
