Famous quotes containing the word success:
“I am from time to time congratulating myself on my general want of success as a lecturer; apparent want of success, but is it not a real triumph? I do my work clean as I go along, and they will not be likely to want me anywhere again. So there is no danger of my repeating myself, and getting to a barrel of sermons, which you must upset, and begin again with.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The best augury of a man’s success in his profession is that he thinks it the finest in the world.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
