To succeed in the world, we do everything we can to appear successful.

The common denominator of happy and successful people is that they spend their time with other happy and successful people.

We ought not to let either our joy at their faults or our grief at their success be idle, but in either case we ought to reflect, how we may become better than them by avoiding their errors, and by imitating their virtues not come short of them.

There is only one success—to be able to spend your life in your own way.

Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning.

Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another.

I am not a saint, unless you think of a saint as a sinner who keeps on trying.

I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed.

We are prone to judge success by the index of our salaries or the size of our automobiles rather than by the quality of our service and relationship to mankind.
