Failed Quotes

In my opinion, our health care system has failed when a doctor fails to treat an illness that is treatable Picture Quote #1

What does it say about a president’s policies when he has to use a cartoon character rather than real people to justify his record?

Jesus comes for sinners, for those outcast...and those caught up in squalid choices and failed dreams Picture Quote #1

It’s important to celebrate your failures as much as your successes. If you celebrate your failures really well, and if you get to the motto and say, ‘Wow, I failed, I tried, I was wrong, I learned something,’ then you realize you have no fear, and when your fear goes away, you can move the world Picture Quote #1

The whole celebrity thing didn’t work for Hillary Clinton. She tried that in her campaign and it failed Picture Quote #1

We spend a lot of time training and retraining. It’s heartbreaking because our education system has failed all of us.

It’s amazing how that change has transpired in my lifetime Picture Quote #1

I think this was a change election, as David Axelrod said. It was a primal scream by many who feel that a discredited elite failed them, economically and politically Picture Quote #1

With ‘Ilustrado,’ I set out to change the way we read literature, and I think I failed spectacularly. In fact, I know I failed. In reaching further than I could, I may not have produced a life- or literature-changing book, but I did produce one I am proud of Picture Quote #1

I felt the weakness of these books, their immateriality, how they had failed to change the world, and I didn’t want to sully myself with their weakness anymore Picture Quote #1

I have a great respect for incremental improvement, and I’ve done that sort of thing in my life, but I’ve always been attracted to the more revolutionary changes. I don’t know why. Because they’re harder. They’re much more stressful emotionally. And you usually go through a period where everybody tells you that you’ve completely failed Picture Quote #1

I do think it’s good to remember that childish things are made for children, and that, however pleasantly lurid the promise of a return to the clarity of childhood may be, an infatuation with the childish reveals only that one has failed to grow past it Picture Quote #1

There is a time in every life when paths are chosen, character is forged. I could have chosen a different path. But I didn’t. I failed myself Picture Quote #1

Our system doesn’t work, and it doesn’t work, ultimately, not because of Sarah Palin, or the christian right, or Glenn Beck. It doesn’t work because the liberal class failed us.
