- John Dingell on Failure

- John Kenneth Galbraith on Failure
- War, except in self-defense, is a failure of moral imagination.
- Bill Moyers on Failure

- Russell Pearce on Failure
- We all struggle with our failure to communicate and our failure to reach beyond fear to love people.
- Mira Sorvino on Failure

- John B. S. Haldane on Failure
- We do not realise that we are children of eternity. If we did, then success would be no success, and failure would be no failure to us.
- Joseph Barber Lightfoot on Failure
- We failed, but in the good providence of God apparent failure often proves a blessing.
- Robert E. Lee on Failure

- Timothy Geithner on Failure
- We know there is no such thing as freedom without the risk of failure.

- We need to teach the highly educated man that it is not a disgrace to fail and that he must analyze every failure to find its cause. He must learn how to fail intelligently, for failing is one of the greatest arts in the world.
- Charles Kettering on Failure

- Whoopi Goldberg on Failure
- Well, I think first of all there was a failure to have real, clear information at our disposal. There was a real lack of situational awareness. We didn't have the capabilities on the ground to give us real-time, accurate assessments of the physical condition of the city.
- Michael Chertoff on Failure
- Well, I think it's too early to call Fallujah a failure.
- Charles Schumer on Failure
- Well, I think that there's a very thin dividing line between success and failure. And I think if you start a business without financial backing, you're likely to go the wrong side of that dividing line.
- Richard Branson on Failure
- Well, the idea is that failure is an inevitable partner on the road to success and, if you're not willing to confront failure, you can never find out how good you are.
- Peter Guber on Failure
- What is more comforting to the terrorists around the world: the failure to pass the 9/11 legislation because we lacked 'a majority of the majority,' or putting aside partisan politics to enact tough new legislation with America's security foremost in mind?
- Rahm Emanuel on Failure

- Bryant H. McGill on Failure
- Who I am as a guitarist is defined by my failure to become Jimi Hendrix.
- John Mayer on Failure

- J. K. Rowling on Failure
- Why do we capital-N Nerds love Mars so much? Because it's beautiful, it's tough, it's buried in our mythic, childhood memories. It's covered with human triumphs but also with sad stories of failure.
- Why should anybody be interested in some old man who was a failure?
- Ernest Hemingway on Failure
- Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion someday.
- Wilma Rudolph on Failure
- With engineering, I view this year's failure as next year's opportunity to try it again. Failures are not something to be avoided. You want to have them happen as quickly as you can so you can make progress rapidly.
- Gordon Moore on Failure
- With everything that is complex, we learn. If you don't learn, then it's an utter and abject failure. If you do learn, and you're able to apply that to the next situation, then you take away a measure of success.
- Benjamin Carson on Failure
- With failure, you just try again.
- Judd Nelson on Failure
