I never pick up an item without thinking of how I might improve it.

Success in life depends on action, that is, on what you do, and not what you Feel or think, and the price of success is hard work.

Moving from chair to chair, from coffee machine to coffee machine is the limit of my action in most films. But I enjoy being cast in them because I love watching them.

Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless.

The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.

If you can't make it good, at least make it look good.

Success is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.

Good things happen to those who hustle.

If you're trying to create a company, it's like baking a cake. You have to have all the ingredients in the right proportion.

Well done is better than well said.

Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them.

I will prepare and some day my chance will come.

If I have ever made any valuable discoveries, it has been due more to patient attention, than to any other talent.

If you're bored with life, if you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things, you don't have enough goals.

I readily absorb ideas from every source, frequently starting where the last person left off

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

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

Success comes to those who become success conscious. Failure comes to those who indifferently allow themselves to become failure conscious.

I'm not the smartest fellow in the world, but I can sure pick smart colleagues.

Personally, I enjoy working about 18 hours a day. Besides the short catnaps I take each day, I average about four to five hours of sleep per night.

To those whom much is given, much is expected.
