Famous quotes containing the word succeed:

    Though those who study are as many as the number of hairs on an ox, those who succeed are as rare as unicorns’ horns.
    Chinese proverb.

    You’ll never succeed in idealizing hard work. Before you can dig mother earth you’ve got to take off your ideal jacket. The harder a man works, at brute labour, the thinner becomes his idealism, the darker his mind.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and skill to him that can get it.
