It’s a great thing when you can show that you’ve been successful and that you’ve made a lot of money and that you’ve employed a lot of people.

The men who try to do something and fail are infinitely better than those who do nothing and succeed.

I measure success by how many people love me.

The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.

Only he is successful in his business who makes that pursuit which affords him the highest pleasure sustain him.

The recipe of success is to study while others are sleeping, work while others are loafing, prepare while others are playing, and dream while others are wishing.

I thought I’d be a success even back in the mailroom at William Morris. It was just inconceivable to me I couldn’t win it all.

You may only succeed if you desire succeeding; you may only fail if you do not mind failing.

Losing is tough.

One of the problems when you become successful is that jealousy and envy inevitably follow. There are people-I categorize them as life’s losers-who get their sense of accomplishment and achievement from trying to stop others. As far as I’m concerned, if they had any real ability they wouldn’t be fighting me, they’d be doing something constructive themselves.

If you want to double your success rate, you need to double your failure rate.

You’ve achieved success in your field when you don’t know whether what you’re doing is work or play.

Everyone who achieves success in a great venture, solves each problem as they came to it. They helped themselves. And they were helped through powers known and unknown to them at the time they set out on their voyage. They keep going regardless of the obstacles they met.

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

Success is achieved and maintained by those who try and keep trying.
