“The road to success is filled with women pushing their husbands along.”

“We need to accept that we won't always make the right decisions, that we'll screw up royally sometimes - understanding that failure is not the opposite of success, it's part of success.”

“Success is dangerous. One begins to copy oneself, and to copy oneself is more dangerous than to copy others. It leads to sterility.”

“Picture yourself vividly as winning, and that alone will contribute immeasurably to success.”

“If you come into success too soon, you'll burn out and be finished before you know it. If you let the maturation process happen naturally, you'll be happier with yourself in the end.”

“The test of success is not what you do when you are on top. Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.”

“The world judge of men by their ability in their profession, and we judge of ourselves by the same test: for it is on that on which our success in life depends.”

“Well, I think that there's a very thin dividing line between success and failure. And I think if you start a business without financial backing, you're likely to go the wrong side of that dividing line.”

“Look, if you ask a child, 'Would you rather have a fulfilled mother or a stay-at-home Sylvia Plath,' they'll pick Sylvia Plath every time. But I think it's really important that children don't feel their parents' emotional lives depend on their success.”
