    I've been musing this for awhile. Is failure a bad thing? I don't see how, as it can be one of the greatest teachers we have. I see so many become disheartened by it, but in some cases 'fail' to realise that there is a lesson to be learned from it.

    No fail, no try, no better next time.

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

    I think this is the quote you seek :P but yes, if you never try, you'll never learn.
