I hate the idea of success robbing you of your private life.

Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose.

Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

When you're famous you kind of run into human nature in a raw kind of way. It stirs up envy, fame does.

I've often felt there might be more to be gained by studying business failures than business successes.

Learn the art of patience. Apply discipline to your thoughts when they become anxious over the outcome of a goal. Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, decisiveness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success.
