Losing is tough.
We are not the sum of our possessions.
I think when you see an aircraft fire, these angry, black puffs of smoke, knowing that one of them could kill you that you – you – you understand the seriousness of the mission. And you understand your own mortality.
I am not one who – who flamboyantly believes in throwing a lot of words around.
I like a colorful sock. I’m a sock man.
We are a nation of communities… a brilliant diversity spread like stars, like a thousand points of light in a broad and peaceful sky.
It’s a very good question, very direct, and I’m not going to answer it.
To succeed in life, you need to things: ignorance and confidence.
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.
I dread success. To have succeeded is to have finished one’s business on earth, like the male spider, who is killed by the female the moment he has succeeded in his courtship. I like a state of continual becoming, with a goal in front and not behind.
It’s next to impossible to build a successful business without relationships.
In the end, you’re measured not by how much you undertake but by what you finally accomplish.
If past history was all that is needed to play the game of money, the richest people would be librarians.
We learned about honesty and integrity – that the truth matters… that you don’t take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules… and success doesn’t count unless you earn it fair and square.
Whenever I hear it cant be done, I know I am close to success.
Winners are not afraid of losing. But losers are. Failure is part of the process of success. People who avoid failure also avoid success.
It was just inconceivable to me I couldn’t win it all.
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.
The men who try to do something and fail are infinitely better than those who do nothing and succeed.
My life is a success – I am a happy man.
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.
There’s always something about your success that displeases even your best friends.
