Quotations About Success

Motivation to succeed at the game of life

SuccessSuccess is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm. —Winston Churchill


Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. —Jack Kerouac


Success is not the key to happiness — happiness is the key to success. —Unknown


If you hear a voice within you say "you cannot paint," then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced. —Vincent Van Gogh

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand. —Woodrow Wilson


Success is not measured by what you accomplish, but by the opposition you have encountered, and the courage with which you have maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds. —Orison Swett Marden


Let every man or woman here, if you never hear me again, remember this, that if you wish to be great at all, you must begin where you are and with what you are. He who would be great anywhere must first be great in his own Philadelphia. —Russel H. Conwell


Success doesn't come to you — you go to it. —Marva Collins


Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value. —Albert Einstein


Success is simply a matter of luck. Ask any failure. —Earl Nightingale

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great. —Mark Twain


Whether you think you can or think you can't — you're right. —Henry Ford


Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing in the world is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent... —Calvin Coolidge

    Powerful quotes on success you've showcased here, MiMi! I particularly like the ones that show the positive side of failure, that is, turning failures into success. Like Christ said..."everything is possible to him who believes." Wishing you a year filled with much success, peace, love and blessings! :)

    You have so many of my favorite quotations here. Very inspiring collection of wisdom. One of the quotes I've had on my office wall for years is from a 1910 speech by Theodore Roosevelt:

    "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

    Love these quotes about success! Mimi, you encouraged me to believe I could be a Giant Squid, and I did. Without you and Team One I would have remained a floundering baby Squid and never grown to love Squidoo. So here I am giving you thanks for that!

    "Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day; while failure is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day. It is the accumulative weight of our disciplines and our judgments that leads us to either fortune or failure." —Jim Rohn
