Why, look at me. I've worked my way up from nothing to a state of extreme poverty.

Success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become

What I cannot create, I do not understand.

Find out what you really love to do, and then find a way to make a good living doing it.

Whosoever desires constant success must change his conduct with the times.

Genius is eternal patience.

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.

You never achieve success unless you like what you are doing.

You can observe a lot just by watching.

I believe that anyone can conquer fear by doing the things he fears to do, provided he keeps doing them until he gets a record of successful experiences behind him.

Success is having a flair for the thing that you are doing, knowing that is not enough, that you have got to have hard work and a sense of purpose.

Every action has its pleasures and its price.

Earning happiness means doing good and working, not speculating and being lazy. Laziness may look inviting, but only work gives you true satisfaction.

In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun and - SNAP - the job's a game!

If you don't have time to do it right, when will you have the time to do it over?

Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.... You must do the thing you think you cannot do.

The world does not pay men for that which they 'know'. It pays them for what they do, or induce others to do.

But Marge, what if we chose the wrong religion? Each week we just make God madder and madder.

Chop your own wood and it will warm you twice

It is amazing how much can be accomplished if no one cares who gets the credit.
