Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.
Keep steadily before you the fact that all true success depends at last upon yourself.
Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.
The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen.
A failure is a man who has blundered, but is not able to cash in on the experience.
There is only one success--to be able to spend your life in your own way.
The secret of success is to know something nobody else knows.

If you wish success in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counselor, caution your elder brother, and hope your guardian genius.
Impatience never commanded success.
The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do, well.
To climb steep hills requires a slow pace at first.
Try not to become a man of success but a man of value.
The man who makes a success of an important venture never wails for the crowd. He strikes out for himself. It takes nerve, it takes a great lot of grit; but the man that succeeds has both. Anyone can fail. The public admires the man who has enough confidence in himself to take a chance. These chances are the main things after all. The man who tries to succeed must expect to be criticized. Nothing important was ever done but the greater number consulted previously doubted the possibility. Success is the accomplishment of that which most people think can't be done.
And one quote just for fun.....
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There's no use being a damn fool about it.
