One thought a day

Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.

Some folks can look so busy doing nothin' that they seem indispensable.

There's always room at the top.

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.

Ambition is the last refuge of failure.

If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.

I have 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.

That's what learning is, after all; not whether we lose the game, but how we lose and how we've changed because of it and what we take away from it that we never had before, to apply to other games. Losing, in a curious way, is winning.

Success is more attitude then aptitude.

Each person has the right to take part in the management of public affairs in his country, provided he has prior experience, a will to succeed, a college degree, influential parents, good looks, a resume, two 3X4 snapshots, and a good tax record.

The amount of success is in inverse proportion to the effort in attaining success.

In Fame's temple there is always a niche to be found for rich dunces, importunate scoundrels or successful butchers of the human race.

Nature gave man 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.

Man errs as long as he strives.

We must walk consciously only part way toward our goal, and then leap in the dark to our success.

Hitch your wagon to a star.

Success is relevant to coping with obstacles... But no problem is ever solved by those, who, when they fail, look for someone to blame instead of something to do.

Ambition often puts men upon doing the meanest offices: so climbing is performed in the same posture with creeping.

If a man is happy in his work exerting himself to the full extent of his capabilities, and enjoying it I'd say he's a success.

Even on the most exalted throne in the world we areonly sitting on our own bottom.

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.

There is a time in the tides of men, Which, taken at its flood, leads on to success. On the other hand, don't count on it.

If you wish to be a success in the world, promise everything, deliver nothing.

Success has always been a great liar.

Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door.
