Best Quotes about Success

One principle reason why men are so often useless is that they divide and shift their attention among a multiplicity of objects and pursuits.

Emmons, G.

He who has done his best for his own time has lived for all times.

Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

When I was younger I thought success was something different. I thought, " When I grow up, I want to be famous. I want to be a star. I want to be in movies. When I grow up I want to see the world, drive nice cars. I want to have groupies." But my idea of success is different today. For me, the most important thing in your life is to live your life with integrity and not to give into peer pressure, to try to be something that you're not. To live your life as an honest and compassionate person. To contribute in some way.

I've come to embrace the notion that I haven't done enough in my life. I've come to confirm that one's title, even a title like president of the United States, says very little about how well one's life has been led.
