Wolfe, Thomas

22.

My definition of success is total self acceptance. We can obtain all of the material possessions we desire quite easily, however, attempting to change our deepest thoughts and learning to love ourselves is a monumental challenge.

Brown, Helen Gurley

34.

I've come to embrace the notion that I haven't done enough in my life. I've come to confirm that one's title, even a title like president of the United States, says very little about how well one's life has been led. No matter how much you've done or how successful you've been, there's always more to do, always more to learn, and always more to achieve.

Roosevelt, Theodore

46.

Do not let yourselves be discouraged or embittered by the smallness of the success you are likely to achieve in trying to make life better.
