Ray Bradbury Quotes

One reason people who spend a lot of time thinking about and working on a problem or a craft seem to find breakthroughs more often than everyone else is that they've failed more often than everyone else.

Success is never final, but failure can be.

Failure is success training.

Lots of times I'm not crazy about the writing, but I keep moving ahead and somehow it gets better. The important thing is to move forward.

The best advice I have is keep writing, keep practicing, keep winning, losing and understanding the difference. Never stop learning, never stop pushing yourself. Then find yourself a team you can work well with and help make awesome things happen.

The story fails but your faith in the importance of doing the story doesn't fail.

Constant effort and frequent mistakes are the stepping stones to genius.

Keep practicing, even when you seem to be getting nowhere.

Erase the word "failure" from your vocabulary. No case is ever truly closed, and no challenge is ever over.

Just keep going. Everybody gets better if they keep at it.

Without failure there is no achievement.

Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better.

Failure is a part of success.

Failure has been my best friend as a writer. It tests you, to see if you have what it takes to see it through.

It's easy to get discouraged; just keep writing because you love to do it, and you'll keep improving.

Almost everything you do fails. To develop a great success we must have thousands of failures along the way

Improvement at anything is based on thousands of tiny failures, and the magnitude of your success is based on how many times you've failed at something.

In order to succeed, you have to fail, no? You ride a bicycle, you fail; you try a few times, you succeed.

We Don't always succeed in what we try, certainly not by the world's standards, but I think you'll find it's the willingness to keep trying that matters most.

You fail, and then what? Life goes on. It's only when you risk failure that you discover things.

The only road to good shows is bad ones. Just go start having a bad time, and if you don't give up, you will get better.

Mr. Edison worked endlessly on a problem, using the method of elimination. If a person asked him if he were discouraged because so many attempts proved unavailing, he would say, "No, I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward.".

Fall forward. Here's what I mean: Reggie Jackson struck out 2,600 times in his career - the most in the history of baseball. But you don't hear about the strikeouts. People remember the home runs. Fall forward. Thomas Edison conducted 1,000 failed experiments. Did you know that? I didn't either - because number 1,001 was the light bulb. Fall forward. Every failed experiment is one step closer to success.

Successful people fail often, and, worth noting, learn more from that failure than everyone else.
