Lisa, if you don't like your job you don't strike. You just go in every day and do it really half-assed. That's the American way.

Deadlines just aren't real to me until I'm staring one in the face.

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

Earning happiness means doing good and working, not speculating and being lazy. Laziness may look inviting, but only work gives you true satisfaction.

Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.

If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.

You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it.

Be quick, but don't hurry.

Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.

The destination of the seeker… depends on the road he takes.

Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.

No man needs sympathy because he has to work, because he has a burden to carry. Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.

He who will not economize will have to agonize.

Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them.

Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves.

Rich people have small TVs and big libraries, and poor people have small libraries and big TVs.

Riches do not respond to wishes. They respond only to definite plans, backed by definite desires, through constant persistence.

Real success can only come if there is a change in our societies and in our economics and in our politics.

I'm not the smartest fellow in the world, but I can sure pick smart colleagues.

Once you start a working on something, don't be afraid of failure and don't abandon it. People who work sincerely are the happiest.

The best of artists has no conception that the marble alone does not contain within itself.
