A failure is a man who has blundered, but is not able to cash in the experience.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A man can fail many times, but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else.
A man can get discouraged many times but he is not a failure until he begins to blame somebody else and stops trying.
Failure is a word unknown to me.
Often the difference between a successful man and a failure is not one's better abilities or ideas, but the courage that one has to bet on his ideas, to take a calculated risk, and to act.
Failure means a stripping away of the inessential.
Failure is instructive. The person who really thinks learns quite as much from his failures as from his successes.
No man can be a failure if he thinks he's a success; If he thinks he is a winner, then he is.
There is a huge difference between failing and failure. Failing is trying something that you learn doesn't work. Failure is throwing in the towel and giving up. True success comes from failing repeatedly and as quickly as possible, before your cash or your willpower runs out.
Failure is simply the non-presence of success. But a fiasco is a disaster of mythic proportions.
Ultimately there is no such thing as failure. There are lessons learned in different ways.
