Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool about it.
There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.
I can't give you a sure-fire formula for success, but I can give you a formula for failure: try to please everybody all the time.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much;Who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children;Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;Who has never lacked appreciation of Earth's beauty or failed to express it;Who has left the world better than he found it,Whether an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul;Who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had;Whose life was an inspiration;Whose memory a benediction.
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
