Celebrate your people’s success, not your own.
– J. Willard Marriott
Character can not be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
– Helen Keller
Coming together is the beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.
– Henry Ford
Each new day is a blank page in the diary of your life. The secret of success is in turning that diary into the best story you possibly can.
– Douglas Pagels, A Wonderful Resolution For The New Year!
Each success only buys an admission ticket to a more difficult problem.
– Henry Kissinger
Each time you are honest and conduct yourself with honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success. Each time you lie, even with a little white lie, there are strong forces pushing you toward failure.
– Joseph Sugarman
Every success is built on the ability to do better than good enough.
– Unknown
Evolve your understanding of success from the outer realm of control, materialism, and ego, to the inner realm of surrender, spirituality, and compassion.
– Bryant McGill
Failure is not the only punishment for laziness there is also the success of others.
– Jules Renard
Failure is success if we learn from it.
– Malcolm Stevenson Forbes
Giving is the key to all success in all applications of human life.
I am convinced that attitude is the key to success or failure in almost any of life's endeavors. Your attitude--your perspective, your outlook, how you feel about yourself, how you feel about other people--determines your priorities, your actions, your values. Your attitude determines how you interact with other people and how you interact with yourself.
– Caroline Warner
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....Such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.
– Nikola Tesla
I have learned this at least by my experiment that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavours to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.
– Henry David Thoreau
I learned this, at least, by my experiment; that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal, and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within him; or the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in his favor in a more liberal sense, and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings. In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.
– Henry David Thoreau, "Walden", pp. 323- 324
I never question a success, any more than I do the right of a bulldog to lie in his own gateway.
– Josh Billings
If A equals success, then the formula is A equals X plus Y plus Z. X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut.
– Albert Einstein
If A is success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x y is play and z is keeping your mouth shut.
If A is success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut.
– Albert Einstein, Observer, Jan. 15, 1950
If you can't find the key to success, pick the lock.
It must be considered that there is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things. For the reformer has enemies in all those who would profit by the old order, only lukewarm defenders in all those who would profit by the new.
– Machiavelli
Keep in mind that neither success nor failure is ever final.
– Roger Babson
Learn the art of patience. Apply discipline to your thoughts when they become anxious over the outcome of a goal. Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, decisiveness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success.
– Brian Adams
Many a crown of wisdom is but the golden chamberpot of success, worn with pompous dignity.
– Joey Adams
Nature gave men two ends -- one to sit on, and one to think with. Ever since then man's success or failure has been dependent on the one he used most.
– Robert Albert Bloch
