It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

All your dreams can come true if you have the courage to pursue them

I've always found the second book in a series is the hardest to write.

Results! Why, man, I have gotten a lot of results. I know several thousand things that won't work.

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

You can't make souffle rise twice.

A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.

Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose.

Try not to become a man of success but rather to become a man of value.

All achievement, all earned riches, have their beginning in an idea.

The destination of the seeker… depends on the road he takes.

You reach a point where you don't work for money.

You've got to be very careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there.

Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect.

Fake it until you make it.

If you aspire to the highest place, it is no disgrace to stop at the second, or even the third, place.

The man who is swimming against the stream knows the strength of it.

From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.

Success is the doing, not the getting; in the trying, not the triumph. Success is a personal standard, reaching for the highest that is in us, becoming all that we can be. If we do our best, we are a success.

The more you are in this business, the more humbled by it you become.

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.
