Objective Proficiency p. 126. Success. Extra Quotations
Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.
-Winston Churchill-
Other quotes by W. Churchill:
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give
If you’re going through hell, keep going.
You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.
To improve is to change, so to be perfect is to have changed often.
I never ‘worry’ about action, but only about inaction.
One always measures friendships by how they show up in bad weather.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
For myself I am an optimist — it does not seem to be much use being anything else.
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak. Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
I like things to happen, and if they don’t happen I like to make them happen.
You must put your head into the lion’s mouth if the performance is to be a success.
