discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a

you. What we call failure is not the falling down but the staying down Mary Pickford You
always pass failure on the way to success. Mickey Rooney Success

is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm Sir Winston

life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success
