I've always had to have some kind of failure before I was successful.

I've had great success and I've had catastrophic failure. It's really how you handle the rough stuff that defines you, I think.

I've had a lot of success; I've had failures, so I learn from the failure.

I am far more comfortable with failure than I ever will be with success.

I had five years of failure, really, before I had the first initial sign of success.

If I had permitted my failures, or what seemed to me at the time a lack of success, to discourage me I cannot see any way in which I would ever have made progress.

Sometimes people call me a success for all the reasons that make me think I'm a failure.

I was brought up to believe that there is no such thing as failure as long as I'm trying my best. So I've had a 'blood, guts and glory' approach through my whole life.

I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
