Rosalind Russell

Sometimes you need conflict in order to come up with a solution. Through weakness, oftentimes, you can’t make the right sort of settlement, so I’m aggressive, but I also get things done, and in the end, everybody likes me.

One does not always do the best there is. One does the best one can. – Catherine the Great

Success is a state of mind. If you want success, start thinking of yourself as a success.

You must be the change you want to see in the world.

It is surprinsingly how easy it is to forget that the way to get things done is to do them.

Don’t take anything personally. Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.

If you hear a voice within you say ‘you cannot paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.

If you are going to dream, dream big.

It is time for us all to stand and cheer for the do’er, the achiever – the one who recognizes the challenge and does something about it.

It was incredible because it was forced humility. Previously, I would’ve looked at humility as more of a negative thing.

The problem is not getting rid of fear, but using it properly.

Whatever I engage in, I must push inordinately.

Be patient with yourself. Self-growth is tender; it’s holy ground. There’s no greater investment.

But until a person can say deeply and honestly, ‘I am what I am today because of the choices I made yesterday’, that person cannot say, ‘I choose otherwise’.

The starting point of all achievement is desire.
