As únicas grandes companhias que conseguirão ter êxito são aquelas que consideram os seus produtos obsoletos antes que os outros o façam. 

A persistência é o caminho do êxito. 

O sucesso nasce do querer, da determinação e persistência em se chegar a um objetivo. Mesmo não atingindo o alvo, quem busca e vence obstáculos, no mínimo fará coisas admiráveis. 

Agir, eis a inteligência verdadeira. Serei o que quiser. Mas tenho que querer o que for. O êxito está em ter êxito, e não em ter condições de êxito. Condições de palácio tem qualquer terra larga, mas onde estará o palácio se não o fizerem ali? 

Determinação, coragem e auto-confiança são fatores decisivos para o sucesso. Se estamos possuídos por uma inabalável determinação, conseguiremos superá-los. Independentemente das circunstâncias, devemos ser sempre humildes, recatados e despidos de orgulho. 

A vitalidade é demonstrada não apenas pela persistência, mas pela capacidade de começar de novo. 

Só se pode alcançar um grande êxito quando nos mantemos fiéis a nós mesmos. 

Todo mundo é capaz de sentir os sofrimentos de um amigo. Ver com agrado os seus êxitos exige uma natureza muito delicada. 

Creia em si, mas não duvide sempre dos outros. 

Talento é dom, é graça. E sucesso nada tem haver com sorte, mas com determinação e trabalho. 

Estar decidido, acima de qualquer coisa, é o segredo do êxito. 

Para obter êxito no mundo temos de parecer loucos mas sermos espertos. 

A disciplina é a mãe do êxito. 

Nenhum mentiroso tem uma memória suficientemente boa para ser um mentiroso de êxito. 

Para ter um negócio de sucesso, alguém, algum dia, teve que tomar uma atitude de coragem. 

Good union leaders make excellent public leaders in the legislative and executive branches.

Sometimes people talk about music, whether blogs or magazines, in a strange way where it doesn't seem like they're actually listening to it.

For restaurants that have a minimum gratuity charge on large groups, the IRS will now count those tips as regular wages rather than traditional tips that we are all familiar with when we dine out. Ask any server, and they will tell you that this will directly affect their day-to-day lifestyle.

Language is the soul of intellect, and reading is the essential process by which that intellect is cultivated beyond the commonplace experiences of everyday life.

We live in a world where the laws are getting so tight that management has changed to micro-management to quantum-management to paralysis.

Tragedy delights by affording a shadow of the pleasure which exists in pain.

I get tired of myself pretty fast.

The same soil is good for men and for trees. A man's health requires as many acres of meadow to his prospect as his farm does loads of muck.

Music is my hustle.

I think that enduring, committed love between a married couple, along with raising children, is the most noble act anyone can aspire to. It is not written about very much.

Nothing you see on TV is real.

Let's help take back our country with our wallets, and don't forget to contact your senators and congressman to let them know that you don't want amnesty for illegal aliens, that you want them to restore our borders and our sovereignty.

Ultimately, you change the culture in Washington only one way, and it's one election at a time, with the character of the people you send.

It's changing a bit, but the thing in LA is everyone is either in the industry, or knows someone who is in the industry. So, they don't let on that they recognize you, that's what I've found out.

It just seemed like an unattainable dream to go down to Los Angeles and to land a professional working, acting gig on a show that you really love with a character you really connect with. That doesn't seem possible; that seems insane.

Until blacks and whites see each other as brother and sister we will not have parity. Its very clear.

It helps to write as the character that I am trying to be, and try to journal every day as them. Once I've already recorded thoughts as this person, it's easier to just flip back through and be like, 'Oh, yeah, this is what she's thinking; this is what she's feeling.'

I did Chekhov's 'Three Sisters' once. Two months in, I remember going, 'Human beings shouldn't be forced to do or watch this play every night.' It's so dark and so bottomless.

Sanity lies somewhere between the inhibitions of conventional morality and the looseness of the extreme impulse

There is no better time than now, this very Christmas season, for all of us to rededicate ourselves to the principles taught by Jesus the Christ. It is the time to love the Lord, our God, with all our heart - and our neighbors as ourselves.

It's almost as if a demon might have passed from one host to another.

We've never performed the song live outside of recording it in the studio. That was a dream come true because Whitney, she's an icon and she's been one of my main mentors in this business.

Dinner is a great first date. Don't believe that stuff about girls not wanting to eat on a first date - sharing a romantic meal is so sexy.

God is not a vending machine where if you put in enough prayer quarters we get a Reese's Pieces bag that pops out.
