success is a public affair, failure is a private funeral
 

i have not found any expansion on this topic, can any one tell me about its meaning and how can we compose it

as per my little knowledge i understand this expansion
 

every one wanted to get credit of success but no one take responsibility of failure. as john f. kenady said success has many fathers while failure is an orphan, because no one is interested to listen about failure stories in this world. whatever has been done by a successful person people enthusiastically do it because the outcome of the struggle is positive, on the other hand failure who also strive for success but unfortunately failed this world dont even listen to his what was the reason of his failure

what heart touching expansion you have realy no one wants to listen

u are right bros!
Success is an automatic friend-finder and well-wisher producing machine while failure is like the stunning and schorching summer noon,when one's own shadow leaves one.It is difficult to stand by one's kith and kin as well as friends in the hard times,but it is very easy to take one's credit after a grand success,whether it may be winning in a glorious sports contest,an election compaign or competative exam.It also tests one's ability and expertise to distinguish fair-weather friends from sincere and devoted ones.All the same,it also illustrates the universal fact that a successful man is a central figure in the society while a failed man is disregarded and ignored even after his death.So one should work hard in order to live a pleasant life here and there,after demise.
