The opposite of success is not failure. Unsuccessful efforts are not failures unless they so discourage you that you abandon further efforts to achieve your goal. Even then, the venture or effort may be a failure but you are not. Failure is an event not a character trait.

You can't escape moral judgment through a legal loop hole.

There is no objective criteria for either success or failure. People who achieve their goals are successful, those who don't are not.

People of character do the right thing, not because they think it will change the world but because they refuse to be changed by the world.
