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

It is no use saying, ‘We are doing our best.’ You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.

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.

I was determined to succeed in what I loved to do. I wasn’t going to let my disability stand in my way.

Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time.

Whenever I hear it can’t be done, I know I am close to success.

Once a man has made a commitment to a way of life, he puts the greatest strength in the world behind him. It’s something we call heart power. Once a man has made this commitment, nothing will stop him short of success.

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

It was just inconceivable to me I couldn’t win it all.

I’ve always won, and I’m going to continue to win. And that’s the way it is.

Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day-in and day-out.

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.

A lot of people don’t like to win. They actually don’t know how to win, and they don’t like to win because down deep inside they don’t want to win.

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

You always pass failure on the way to success.
