3 December 2020 Maude Adams Life is so fresh, life is every day so new if we are fighting, only for the best. Sometimes I think the only real satisfaction in life is failure, failure in your endeavor to do your best.
3 December 2020 Lillian Hellman Failure in the theater is more dramatic and uglier than any other form of writing. It costs so much, you feel so guilty.
3 December 2020 Elliot Richardson There is an increasingly pervasive sense not only of failure, but of futility. The legislative process has become a cruel shell game and the service system has become a bureaucratic maze, inefficient, incomprehensible, and inaccessible.
3 December 2020 George Edward Woodberry Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure.

3 December 2020 Eric Ries Our educational system is not preparing people for the 21st Century. Failure is an essential part of entrepreneurship. If you work hard, you can get an ‘A’ pretty much guaranteed, but in entrepreneurship, that’s not how it works.
3 December 2020 Elbert Hubbard A failure is a man who has blundered, but is not able to cash in the experience.
3 December 2020 Craig Breedlove There’s only one thing that can guarantee our failure, and that’s if we quit.
3 December 2020 Susie Orbach I’d like to see much more understanding of emotional issues around hurt, abandonment, disappointment, longing, failure and shame, where they stem from and how they drive people and policies brought into public discourse.
3 December 2020 Richard V. Allen Our system provides for a winner to take office on January 20th, and he is expected to take command of the ship of state. Failure to do so, characterized by hesitation and indecision, will harm the national interest.

3 December 2020 Bruno Bettelheim The fear of failure is so great, it is no wonder that the desire to do right by one’s children has led to a whole library of books offering advice on how to raise them.
