Fails Quotes

He who can wait for what he desires takes the course not to be exceedingly grieved if he fails of it; he, on the contrary, who labors after a thing too impatiently thinks the success when it comes is not a recompense equal to all the pains he has been at about it Picture Quote #1

... for when women are the advisers, the lords of creation don’t take the advice till they have persuaded themselves that it is just what they intended to do. Then they act upon it, and, if it succeeds, they give the weaker vessel half the credit of it. If it fails, they generously give her the whole Picture Quote #1

It is much safer to be feared than loved because... love is preserved by the link of obligation which, owing to the baseness of men, is broken at every opportunity for their advantage; but fear preserves you by a dread of punishment which never fails Picture Quote #1

And then I felt sad because I realized that once people are broken in certain ways, they can’t ever be fixed, and this is something nobody ever tells you when you are young and it never fails to surprise you as you grow older as you see the people in your life break one by one. You wonder when your turn is going to be, or if it’s already happened Picture Quote #1

This day will never come again and anyone who fails to eat and drink and taste and smell it will never have it offered to him again in all eternity. The sun will never shine as it does today... But you must play your part and sing a song, one of your best Picture Quote #1

There is one thing you know for sure, one fact that never fails to comfort you: the worst day of your life wasn’t in there, in that mess. And it will do you good to remember the best day of your life wasn’t in there, either. But another person brought you closer to those borders than you had been, and maybe that’s not such a bad thing Picture Quote #1

Intellect takes us along in the battle of life to a certain limit, but at the crucial moment it fails us. Faith transcends reason. It is when the horizon is the darkest and human reason is beaten down to the ground that faith shines brightest and comes to our rescue Picture Quote #1

History fails to record a single precedent in which nations subject to moral decay have not passed into political and economic decline. There has been either a spiritual awakening to overcome the moral lapse, or a progressive deterioration leading to ultimate national disaster Picture Quote #1

To some people, not caring is supposed to be cool, commenting is more interesting than doing, and everything is judged and then disposed of in, like, five minutes. I’m not interested in those kinds of people. I like the person who commits and goes all in and takes big swings and then maybe fails or looks stupid; who jumps and falls down, rather than the person who points at the person who fell, and laughs. But I do sometimes laugh when people fall down Picture Quote #1

Love of colors bewilders the eye and it fails to see right. Love of harmonies bewitches the ear, and it loses its true hearing. Love of perfumes fills the head with dizziness. Love of flavors ruins the taste. Desires unsettle the heart until the original nature runs amok. These five are enemies of true life. Yet these are what men of discernment claim to live for. They are not what I live for. If this is life, then pigeons in a cage have found happiness! Picture Quote #1

Sex is not a mechanical act that fails for lack of technique, and it is not a performance by the male for the audience of the female; it is a continuum of attraction that extends from the simplest conversation and the most innocent touching through the act of coitus Picture Quote #1

All discourse of which others cannot partake is not only an irksome usurpation of the time devoted to pleasure and entertainment, but, what never fails to excite resentment, an insolent assertion of superiority, and a triumph over less enlightened understandings. The pedant is, therefore, not only heard with weariness but malignity; and those who conceive themselves insulted by his knowledge never fail to tell with acrimony how injudiciously it was exerted Picture Quote #1

We need wilderness because we are wild animals. Everyone needs a place where he can go to go crazy in peace. For the terror, freedom, and delirium. Because we need brutality and raw adventure, because men and women first learned to love in, under, and all around trees, because we need for every pair of feet and legs about ten leagues of naked nature, crags to leap from, mountains to measure by, deserts to finally die in when the heart fails Picture Quote #1

All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts Picture Quote #1

A mind at liberty to reflect on its own observations, if it produce nothing useful to the world, seldom fails of entertainment to itself Picture Quote #1

In our tabulation of psychoanalytic results, we have classed those who stopped treatment together with those not improved. This appears to be reasonable; a patient who fails to finish his treatment, and is not improved, is surely a therapeutic failure Picture Quote #1

Truth suffers no loss if a vehement youth fails in finding it, in the same way that virtue and religion suffer no detriment if a criminal denies them Picture Quote #1

What though strength fails? Boldness is certain to win praise. In mighty enterprises, it is enough to have had the determination Picture Quote #1

Each of us has been endowed with the perfect power to be free. Slavery is a state of mind that fails to acknowledge the slave’s own power Picture Quote #1

All the gifts which fortune bestows she can easily take away; but education, when combined with intelligence, never fails, but abides steadily on to the very end of life Picture Quote #1

There is an art to knowing where things should be checked and making sure that the program fails fast if you make a mistake. That kind of choosing is part of the art of simplification Picture Quote #1

For it is certain that the future will bring realities for which our traditional optimism fails to prepare us and against which our economic momentum fails to arm us Picture Quote #1

When you find that it fails to respond adequately to your buying you don’t need any better tip to sell Picture Quote #1

Anybody’s life may be just as romantic and strange and interesting if he or she fails as if he or she succeed. all the difference is, that the last chapter is wanting in the story Picture Quote #1

A word can be transformed into a color, light, a smell; it is the writer’s task to use it in such a way that it serves, never fails, can never be ignored Picture Quote #1

He that fails in his endeavours after wealth or power will not long retain either honesty or courage Picture Quote #1

An inventor is simply a person who doesn’t take his education too seriously. He tries and fails maybe a 1000 times. If he succeeds once then he’s in Picture Quote #1

The man who tries to do something and fails is infinitely better than he who tries to do nothing and succeeds Picture Quote #1

An act of love that fails is just as much a part of the divine life as an act of love that succeeds, for love is measured by fullness, not by reception Picture Quote #1

Perpetual aiming at wit is a very bad part of conversation. It is done to support a character: it generally fails; it is a sort of insult on the company, and a restraint upon the speaker Picture Quote #1
