Failure doesn't mean you are a failure it just means you haven't succeeded yet.

I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself than this incessant business.

Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something.

Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.

No enterprise is more likely to succeed than one concealed from the enemy until it is ripe for execution.

If you listen to your fears, you will die never knowing what a great person you might have been.

Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit.

If there is anything that a man can do well, I say let him do it. Give him a chance.

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.

Business is never so healthy as when, like a chicken, it must do a certain amount of scratching around for what it gets.
