Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day-in and day-out.
Success is not the key to happiness, happiness is the key to success.
Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.
It's fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.
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.
