There was a failure to recognize the deep problems in AI for instance those captured in Blocks World. The people building physical robots learned nothing.

There comes a point in your moviegoing life where you look at the screen and then you look at the world and you ask 'What is going on?' You want the movies to show you the chaos and mess and risk and failure that are normal for a lot of us. Generally the movies hide all of that.

Well I think first of all there was a failure to have real clear information at our disposal. There was a real lack of situational awareness. We didn't have the capabilities on the ground to give us real-time accurate assessments of the physical condition of the city.

I was brought up to believe that there is no such thing as failure as long as I'm trying my best. So I've had a 'blood guts and glory' approach through my whole life.

We go there with confidence but we know there is a very fine line between success and failure in this game.

I think it's one of the main negative emotional ingredients that fuels show business because there's so much at stake and the fear of failure looms large.

I think I've failed every test I've ever taken. If there was a failure I would have been it.

There is an increasingly pervasive sense not only of failure but of futility. The legislative process has become a cruel shell game and the service system has become a bureaucratic maze inefficient incomprehensible and inaccessible.

In God's world for those who are in earnest there is no failure. No work truly done no word earnestly spoken no sacrifice freely made was ever made in vain.

Sadness is a super important thing not to be ashamed about but to include in our lives. One of the bigger problems with sadness or depression is there's so much shame around it. If you have it you're a failure. You are felt as being very unattractive.

There would seem to be a limit even for an art preoccupied with boundaries and transgressions beyond which a work reaches its breaking point and becomes an actual failure a mere experimentation.

Unwillingness to risk failure is always there but it gets harder when you feel you have more to lose.

I don't think there's any way it could have failed. We don't know failure in this band. We didn't know failure. We got to know it a little after awhile but at that time there was no such word.
