Success

The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain, egotistic, and self-complacent is erroneous, on the contrary, it makes them for the most part, humble, tolerant, and kind. Failure makes people bitter and cruel.
- Maugham, W. Somerset
Success Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Success

1.
There is no royal road; you've got to work a good deal harder than most people want to work.
Wilson, Charles E.

2.
The two leading recipes for success are building a better mousetrap and finding a bigger loophole.
Shoaff, Edgar

3.
The key to success is to focus our conscious mind on things we desire not things we fear.
Tracy, Brian

4.
Try not to become a man of success but rather to become a man of value.
Albert Einstein

5.
Success tends to go not to the person who is error-free, because he also tends to be risk-averse. Rather it goes to the person who recognizes that life is pretty much a percentage business. It isn't making mistakes that's critical; it's correcting them and getting on with the principal task.
Rumsfeld, Donald

6.
Success action is cumulative in its results.
Wattles, Wallace D.

7.
It's the men behind who make the man ahead.
Crowell, Merle

8.
You already have every characteristic necessary for success.

9.
The secret of success is to realize that the crisis on our planet is much larger than just deciding what to do with your own life, and if the system under which we live the structure of western civilization begins to collapse because of our selfishness and greed, then it will make no difference whether you have $1 million dollars when the crash comes or just $1.00. The only work that will ultimately bring any good to any of us is the work of contributing to the healing of the world.
Williamson, Marianne

10.
Success doesn't mean the absence of failures; it means the attainment of ultimate objectives. It means winning the war, not every battle.
Bliss, Edwin C.

11.
Success in its highest and noblest form calls for peace of mind and enjoyment and happiness which come only to the man who has found the work that he likes best.
Hill, Napoleon

12.
Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life.
Dr. David M. Burns

13.
When a man has done his best, has given his all, and in the process supplied the needs of his family and his society, that man has made a habit of succeeding.
Douglas, Mack R.

14.
The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain, egotistic, and self-complacent is erroneous, on the contrary, it makes them for the most part, humble, tolerant, and kind. Failure makes people bitter and cruel.
Maugham, W. Somerset

15.
If at first you don't succeed, try to hide your astonishment.
Banks, Harry F.

16.
To succeed you need to find something to hold on to, something to motivate you, something to inspire you.
Dorsett, Tony

17.
I do not like to repeat successes, I like to go on to other things.
Disney, Walt

18.
Success is dependent upon the glands -- sweat glands.
Ziglar, Zig

19.
The measure of success is not whether you have a tough problem to deal with, but whether it's the same problem you had last year.
Dulles, John Foster

20.
The only place you find success before work is in the dictionary.
Smith, May V.

21.
To follow, without halt, one aim: There's the secret of success.
Anna Pavlova

22.
There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way.
Christopher Morley

23.
I owe my success to having listened respectfully to the very best advice, and then going away and doing the exact opposite.
G. K. Chesterton

24.
Success consecrates the most offensive crimes.
Seneca

25.
On the pinnacle of success man does not stand firm long.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

26.
That's what building a body of work is all about. It's about the daily labor, the many individual acts, the choices large and small that add up over time, over a lifetime to a lasting legacy. It's about not being satisfied with the latest achievement, the latest gold star, because the one thing I know about a body of work is that it's never finished. It's cumulative. It deepens and expands with each day you give your best. You may have setbacks and you may have failures, but you're not done. You haven't even started.
Barack Obama

27.
The gent who wakes up and finds himself a success hasn't been asleep.
Mizner, Wilson

28.
There are opportunities everywhere, just as there have always been...
Fillmore, Charles

29.
My success just evolved from working hard at the business at hand each day.
Carson, Johnny

30.
Character is more important than intelligence for success.
Beaux, Gilberte

31.
Success didn't spoil me, I've always been insufferable.
Fran Lebowitz

32.
Success... it's what you do with what you've got.
Dyke, Leroy Van

33.
Success doesn't come to you you go to it.
Collins, Marva

34.
You are wholly complete and your success in life will be in direct proportion to your ability to accept this truth about you.
Anthony, Dr. Robert

35.
When we fail our pride supports us and when we succeed, it betrays us.
Colton, Charles Caleb

36.
It is harder for a poor man to be successful than it is for a rich man.
Nunn, Gregory

37.
We climb to heaven most often on the ruins of our cherished plans, finding our failures were successes.
Alcott, Amos Bronson

38.
You always pass failure on the way to success.
Mickey Rooney

39.
Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell em, Certainly I can! -- and get busy and find out how to do it.
Roosevelt, Theodore

40.
To try is all. It matters not if one succeeds or fails outwardly.
Thibodeau, Robert

One might think that the money value of an invention constitutes its reward to the man who loves his work. But speaking for myself, I can honestly say this is not so... I continue to find my greatest pleasure, and so my reward, in the work that precedes what the world calls success.
Edison, Thomas A.

44.
Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal or ideal.
Nightingale, Earl

45.
We need not worry so much about what man descends from; it's what he descends to that shames the human race.
Twain, Mark

46.
Most of the successful people I've known are the ones who do more listening than talking.
Baruch, Bernard M.

47.
Be awfully nice to them going up, because you're gonna meet them all coming down.
Durante, Jimmy

48.
The trouble comes when we try to fashion our success to the outside world's specifications even though these are not the specifications drawn up in our own hearts. For whom are we succeeding, for ourselves or for somebody else? Success, if it is to be mea
Whitman, Howard

49.
If, at first, you do succeed, try to hide your astonishment.
Los Angeles Times

50.
Success has a simple formula: do your best, and people may like it.
Ewing, Sam
