I have yet to see a drama that puts forward women who are successful and have a family. Women are nearly always seen as victims.

Clearly older women and especially older women who have led an active life or elder women who successfully maneuver through their own family life have so much to teach us about sharing patience and wisdom.

Once you're successful with a certain kind of music it's hard not to have faith in it as a means to stay successful.

People who believe they have the power to exercise some measure of control over their lives are healthier more effective and more successful than those who lack faith in their ability to effect changes in their lives.

Always be yourself express yourself have faith in yourself do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.

Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.

Don't take too much comfort in the fact that you're successful today because tomorrow could bring failure. There's no surety in life.

If 50 percent of your career is not filled with failure you're not really successful.

Other countries such as Israel successfully employ behavior detection techniques at their airports but the bloated ineffective bureaucracy of TSA has produced another security failure for U.S. transportation systems.

Before this government came to power many failing schools were simply allowed to drift on in a pattern of continuing failure. The government is determined to break that pattern and is successfully doing so.

I'm kind of a failure. I mean I'll be honest. I'm successful in that I'm getting to work on great stuff but I think I'm a failure in all the personal stuff that is most important to me.

I may be a successful football player but I feel like such a failure.

I mean I love L.A. - I love living here. But I wish that we could make things without the need to hit a home run every single time. It's a unique thing to Hollywood that if you don't do that every time then you're considered a failure. But it's like 'Well are you making movies to be successful? Or are you making movies to learn something?'

Most success springs from an obstacle or failure. I became a cartoonist largely because I failed in my goal of becoming a successful executive.

The freedom to fail is vital if you're going to succeed. Most successful people fail from time to time and it is a measure of their strength that failure merely propels them into some new attempt at success.
