Quotations regarding 'Success'

Choose a letter: 
Daytime has been successful all these years because it caters to a very real need in the audience - to see something that's not nighttime fantasy. People watch daytime because it's like their lives.
Erika Slezak, American Actress (1946-  )
More and more do I see that only a successful revolution in India can break England's back forever and free Europe itself. It is not a national question concerning India any longer; it is purely international.
Agnes Smedley, American Journalist (1892-1950)
Hope... is the companion of power, and the mother of success; for who so hopes has within him the gift of miracles.
Samuel Smiles, Scottish Author (1812-1904)
We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.
Samuel Smiles, Scottish Author (1812-1904)
The battle of life is, in most cases, fought uphill; and to win it without a struggle were perhaps to win it without honor. If there were no difficulties there would be no success; if there were nothing to struggle for, there would be nothing to be achieved.
Samuel Smiles, Scottish Author (1812-1904)
It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept, study, advice, and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done.
Samuel Smiles, Scottish Author (1812-1904)
I'm extremely ambitious. I don't know why people are afraid to say that. I won't sell my soul to the devil, but I do want success and I don't think that's bad.
Jada Pinkett Smith, American Actress (1971-  )
The main problem is that for a boycott to be effective, you must first persuade thousands - maybe even millions of others - to go along, which is a lot of work and usually not successful.
L. Neil Smith, American Writer (1946-  )
The successful man is the one who finds out what is the matter with his business before his competitors do.
Roy L. Smith, American Clergyman
It is manifestly vital to the success of the anti-slavery cause, that the authority and influence of proslavery, especially of slaveholding, ministers should be destroyed.
Gerrit Smith, American Politician (1797-1874)
How can they say my life is not a success? Have I not for more than sixty years got enough to eat and escaped being eaten?
Logan P. Smith, American Writer
Money and success don't change people; they merely amplify what is already there.
Will Smith, American Actor (1968-  )
I fell in love with Neil's pain. We were in this cocoon of intensity. Neil and I were uniquely in the same position at the same time, having overwhelming success facing us.
Carrie Snodgress, American Actress (1946-2004)
Our view is that economic isolationism is the wrong way to go. Vibrant, successful growing economies that advance the interests of their citizens engage the global economy. And, we're committed to engaging the global economy.
John W. Snow, American Economist (1939-  )
Telecom is a dramatic success in India and our view is, respecting the political process, and respecting the fact that these are sovereign decisions, is that, approaching India as a friend.
John W. Snow, American Economist (1939-  )
So successful has been the camera's role in beautifying the world that photographs, rather than the world, have become the standard of the beautiful.
Susan Sontag, American Author (1933-2004)
There is no success without hardship.
Sophocles, Greek Poet
Success is dependent on effort.
Sophocles, Greek Poet
It doesn't matter how successful you are in this business, it's tough to get through the next door.
Kevin Sorbo, American Actor (1958-  )
When it comes to social consequences, they've got all different people acting in different ways, very difficult to even have a proper criterion of success. So, it's a difficult task.
George Soros, Hungarian Businessman (1930-  )
