I don't think success has changed us as people at all. We are the same lunatics that we were when this band first got going. We never see ourselves as being on a higher level than our fans.

You wanna know what scares people? Success. When you don't make moves and when you don't climb up the ladder everybody loves you because you're not competition.

If you can go out with your live show and turn people on to that where you have that fan base that's religious and they're going to come see you when you're in that town once your radio success is gone and you're not a mainstream guy anymore you can still go out and play your shows.

With success came an ever-growing burden of responsibility. I lived with a near-constant low-level anxiety that I would make a mistake that would not only threaten my career but also my brothers' - not to mention the livelihoods of many people who work with us or for us.

I always say that the real success of Wine Library wasn't due to the videos I posted but to the hours I spent talking to people online afterward making connections and building relationships.

My store Wine Library outsells big national chains. How do you think we do it? It started with hustle. I always say that our success wasn't due to my hundreds of online videos about wine that went viral but to the hours I spent talking to people online afterward making connections and building relationships.

I don't think success arrives and you're suddenly happy. It's not like that. If people think that they'll be very disappointed.

When I meet successful people I ask 100 questions as to what they attribute their success to. It is usually the same: persistence hard work and hiring good people.

Am I coasting on some early success? Yeah. It was a good lucky break for me. But I would rather earn my way back again than simply conform to what people are expecting.

When people stand up and talk about the great success that the EU has been I'm not sure anybody saying it really believes it themselves anymore.

People still don't appreciate how ephemeral success is.

We do not celebrate people who have made success out of serious hard work.

It's the quality of the ordinary the straight the square that accounts for the great stability and success of our nation. It's a quality to be proud of. But it's a quality that many people seem to have neglected.

Everybody loves success but they hate successful people.

The only thing I can say about having this type of success is that you can get yourself in trouble because basically the world is set open for you. People will say yes to anything you ask so it's basically down to you and what you want or need.

Success on any major scale requires you to accept responsibility... in the final analysis the one quality that all successful people have... is the ability to take on responsibility.

In the end you make your reputation and you have your success based upon credibility and being able to provide people who are really hungry for information what they want.

My career started young and I was really ambitious and then I had success and I hung out with people who were much older. I think I might have been temporally misplaced so I thought I was 40. It was a premature midlife crisis.

When somebody has an enormous success in this culture people start asking two questions which are 'What are you doing now?' and 'How are you going to beat that?' And I have to say I love the assumption that your intention is to beat yourself constantly - that you're in battle against yourself.

People think your success is just a matter of having a pretty face. But it's easy to be chewed up and spat out. You've got to stay ahead of the game to be able to stay in it.

This weird thing happens when you're in a movie that has some level of success. People start offering you all kinds of things and they just expect you to do them because they'll be good for your career. It's not about the project's integrity or anything like that.

Success is always something completely different to people. I feel like I've succeeded if I'm doing something that makes me happy and I'm not lying to anybody. I'm not doing that now so I feel really good about myself.

I always think when there's stuff that people don't like I always say that if I have another success I'll enjoy it more but you don't really.

I don't think success is harmful as so many people say. Rather I believe it indispensable to talent if for nothing else than to increase the talent.
