Mr. Gonzales' failure to respond to questions legitimately posed to him by the Senate raises grave doubts in my mind as to his fitness to serve the people of the United States as their Attorney General.

So nevertheless, what I'm saying is that what one is - one's parameters are constantly narrowed by one's success, and my desire is to widen my field even if I risk failure.

I constantly experience failure in that my work is never as good as I want it to be. So I live with failure.

The success or failure of a life, as far as posterity goes, seems to lie in the more or less luck of seizing the right moment of escape.

There is but one cause of human failure. And that is man's lack of faith in his true Self.

Success or failure depends more upon attitude than upon capacity successful men act as though they have accomplished or are enjoying something. Soon it becomes a reality. Act, look, feel successful, conduct yourself accordingly, and you will be amazed at the positive results.

Failure is a word unknown to me.

What we have most to fear is failure of the heart.

Failure is a word that I simply don't accept.

People in the business will stay with you through drugs and alcohol and divorces and insanity and everything else, but you have a failure, pal, and they don't want to know nothing about you!

The guns and the bombs, the rockets and the warships, are all symbols of human failure.

I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying.

Don't be afraid to fail. Don't waste energy trying to cover up failure. Learn from your failures and go on to the next challenge. It's OK to fail. If you're not failing, you're not growing.

My story of success and failure is not just about music and being famous. It's about living and loving and trying to find purpose in this crazy world.

My biggest failure is I have too many to talk about.

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

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

Success breeds success, and failure leads to a sort of fallow period.

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

I think success has no rules, but you can learn a great deal from failure.
