Fail

Famous quotes containing the word fail:

    What you fail to understand is the power of hate. It can fill the heart as surely as love can.
    Earl Felton, and Richard Fleischer. Captain Nemo (James Mason)

    For precisely when concepts fail one,
    Words are found at the right time.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Peace can endure only so long as humanity really insists upon it, and is willing to work for it and sacrifice for it. Twenty- five years ago American fighting men looked to the statesmen of the world to finish the work of peace for which they fought and suffered; we failed them, we failed them then, we cannot fail them again and expect the world to survive again.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
