1 " The qualities of a successful man are tenacity, perseverance, courage and the will to win "
2 " Though neither happiness nor respect are worth anything, because unless both are coming from the truest motives, they are simply deceits. A successful man earns the respect of the world never mind what is the state of his mind, or his manner of earning. So what is the good of such respect, and how happy will such a man be in himself? And if he is what passes for happy, such a state is lower than the self-content of the meanest animal. "
― Richard Llewellyn , How Green Was My Valley
3 " If there is one thing above all others a successful man should know, it is when to stop. "
4 " Often the difference between a successful man and a failure is not one's better abilities or ideas, but the courage that one has to bet on his ideas, to take a calculated risk, and to act. "
5 " Money is often a matter of chance or good fortune and is not the mark of a successful life. It is not the thing that brings a throb of pleasure or a thrill into my life. And I would not pose as a successful man if that were to be the measure. "
6 " There's no secret about success. Did you ever know a successful man who didn't tell you about it? "
― Kin Hubbard
