George Bernard Shaw

The greatest evils and the worst of crimes is poverty; our first duty, a duty to which every other consideration should be sacrificed, is not to be poor.

Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.

We are all dependent on one another, every soul of us on earth.

Physically there is nothing to distinguish human society from the farm-yard except that children are more troublesome and costly than chickens and calves and that men and women are not so completely enslaved as farm stock.

First love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity: no really self-respecting woman would take advantage of it.

Silence is the most perfect expression of scorn.

I don’t cheat to win, I’d rather lose.

I really believe that being in the moment is the key to happiness and success, and being constantly glued to your phone can have a big impact on your relationship.

The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself.

Success covers a multitude of blunders.

You may not be interested in strategy, but strategy is interested in you.

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

Success is only meaningful and enjoyable if it feels like your own.

We learned about gratitude and humility – that so many people had a hand in our success, from the teachers who inspired us to the janitors who kept our school clean… and we were taught to value everyone’s contribution and treat everyone with respect.

If past history was all that is needed to play the game of money, the richest people would be librarians.

Success isn’t about how your life looks to others. It’s about how it feels to you. We realized that being successful isn’t about being impressive, it’s about being inspired. That’s what it means to be true to yourself.

A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and gets to bed at night, and in between he does what he wants to do.

Whenever you see a successful person you only see the public glories, never the private sacrifices to reach them.

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

Success comes from failure, not from memorizing the right answers.

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.
