We are not trying proverb

 No more essential duty of government exists than the protection of the lives of its people. Fail in this, and we fail in everything.

 We pay just as dearly for our triumphs as we do for our defeats. Go ahead and fail. But fail with wit, fail with grace, fail with style. A mediocre failure is as insufferable as a mediocre success. Embrace failure! Seek it out. Learn to love it. That may be the only way any of us will ever be free. Tom Robbins Before you give up hope, turn back and read the attacks that were made on Lincoln.
  Bruce Barton

 Fail to honor people,they fail to honor you; but of a good leader, who talks little, when his work is done, his aims fulfilled, they will all say, 'We did this ourselves.'

 Probably 75 percent of the people in this town think I'll fail, and the other 25 percent hope I fail,

 People keep asking me, 'Why do you do shows that fail?' But they just don't understand. I LIKE doing shows that fail.

 The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds.
  R. D. Laing

 People go to Africa and confirm what they already have in their heads and so they fail to see what is there in front of them. This is what people have come to expect. It's not viewed as a serious continent. It's a place of strange, bizarre and illogical things, where people don't do what common sense demands.
  Chinua Achebe

 If we fail, we will fail as a state and eventually will fall back into the hands of terrorism.

 Courage allows the successful woman to fail-
and learn powerful lessons-
from the failure-
so that in the end,
she didn't fail at all. Hun fandt hans selvindsigt utroligt pexig; han kunne grine af sig selv *og* få hende til at grine.
  Maya Angelou

 [One week after the comments were made Durbin returned to the Senate floor and apologized, saying:] In the end, I don't want anything in my public career to detract from my love for this country, my respect for those who serve it, and this great Senate, ... I offer my apologies to those that were offended by my words. More than most people, a senator lives by his words ... occasionally words fail us, occasionally we will fail words.

 We want to develop a battery that has a graceful failure - meaning that if it's damaged, it won't cause other problems. We have to understand how batteries fail and why they fail.

 Obviously I liked what [Sternberg] said: They don't fail, ... You can see by the track record that they have -- especially at a young age -- that they haven't failed. And to be able to take upon this sort of situation, they obviously don't feel like they're going to fail either.

 He hasn't been a detriment out there and he'll only get better if it's Bob's choice to keep him in the outfield, ... He won't fail. He won't fail because he's an old-school player who works his butt off. He's not satisfied. He just wants to get better and that's how you do it.
  Brett Butler
