"Do not let your grand ambitions stand in the way of small but meaningful accomplishments."

"Failure is a greater teacher than success"

"If failure has the strength to turn your life into bitterness itself, then patience has the strength to turn your life into the sweetest joy. Do not surrender to fate after a single failure. Failure, at most, precedes success."

"Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit."

"My fault, my failure, is not in the passions I have, but in my lack of control of them."

"When we fail, our pride supports us, and when we succeed it betrays us."

"No matter how loud the sirens or how numerous the hazard signs, we all touch the flames at least once to prove they're hot."

"Failure is always an option"

"No one can travel so far that he does not make some progess each day. So let us never give up. Then we shall move forward daily in the Lord's way. And let us never despair because of our limited success. Even though it is so much less than we would like, our labour is not wasted when today is better than yesterday!"

"The only walls that exist are those you have placed in your mind. And whatever obstacles you conceive, exist only because you have forgotten what you have already achieved."

"A minute's success pays the failure of years."

"I'm not going to get somewhere and say, 'OK, I'm done.' Success is never final; I'll just keep on going. The same way as failure never being fatal. Just keep going. I'm going to the stars and then past them."

"Starting a business isn't for everyone, and it's not what you should do if you aren't sure what else to do. It requires thick skin and the willingness to carry a great deal of stress, sometimes alone. It's more often a life of failure than a life of success, and the majority of successes came after a long road of disappointment, and often shame."

"You know you made it, when people you know, tell people they know, that you know them."

"The road to success and the road to failure are almost exactly the same."

"Failures, repeated failures, are finger posts on the road to achievement. One fails forward toward success."

"An investment said to have an 80% chance of success sounds far more attractive than one with a 20% chance of failure. The mind can't easily recognize that they are the same."

"Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure."

"Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our success or failure. The way you think about a fact may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. You are overcome by the fact because you think you are."

"Failure at some point in your life is inevitable, but giving up is unforgivable."
