My dad encouraged us to fail. Growing up, he would ask us what we failed at that week. If we didn't have something, he would be disappointed. It changed my mindset at an early age that failure is not the outcome, failure is not trying. Don't be afraid to fail.

He who risks and fails can be forgiven. He who never risks and never fails is a failure in his whole being.

Big companies are like marching bands. Even if half the band is playing random notes, it still sounds kind of like music. The concealment of failure is built into them.

A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed was not strong enough.

One of the reasons people stop learning is that they become less and less willing to risk failure.
