SOME QUOTES

SUCCESS QUOTES










Demosthenes:
Small opportunities are often the beginning of great enterprises.


Elaine Maxwell:
My will shall shape the future. Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man's doing but my own. I am the force; I can clear any obstacle before me or I can be lost in the maze. My choice; my responsibility; win or lose, only I hold the key to my destiny.

Elbert Hubbard:
The man who is anybody and who does anything is surely going to be criticized, vilified, and misunderstood. This is part of the penalty for greatness, and evey man understands, too, that it is no proof of greatness.

Peter F. Drucker:
There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.
Abraham Lincoln:
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing.
Alex Noble:
If I have been of service, if I have glimpsed more of the nature and essence of ultimate good, if I am inspired to reach wider horizons of thought and action, if I am at peace with myself, it has been a successful day.

Anna Pavlova:
To follow without halt, one aim; there is the secret of success. And success? What is it? I do not find it in the applause of the theater; it lies rather in the satisfaction of accomplishment.

Barbara Jordan:
All my growth and development led me to believe that if you really do the right thing, and if you play by the rules, and if you've got good enough, solid judgment and common sense, that you're going to be able to do whatever you want to do with your life.



LEADERSHIP QUOTES

Gail Sheehy:
The secret of a leader lies in the tests he has faced over the whole course of his life and the habit of action he develops in meeting those tests.

Mother Teresa:
Do not wait for leaders. Do it alone, person to person

Napoleon Hill:
The best job goes to the person who can get it done without passing the buck or coming back with excuses.

Thomas Huxley:
The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest upon, but only to hold a man's foot long enough to enable him to put the other somewhat higher.

Lao-TzuI:
Have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.

William James:
A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices

Edmund Burke:
The great difference between the real leader and the pretender is that the one sees into the future, while the other regards only the present; the one lives by the day, and acts upon expediency; the other acts on enduring principles and for the immortality.

John Kotter:
Great leaders.... motivate large groups of individuals to improve the human condition
