We must become the change we want to see in the world. -- Mohandas Gandhi.
If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be. -- Thomas Jefferson
I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success...

Sometimes, Kickstarter Projects Don’t Make It
In general, no one likes to fail or even hear about failures. I found this story, though about failure, to be quite encouraging. They were trying to raise $20k, but only got $3k worth of pledges; thus the failure. Someone who had seen them on the site invested $200k; and thus the encouragement. I guess it's a sign that even failures can be a good thing -- in their case giving them a 10-fold increase in desired investment.
