The superior man makes the difficulty to be overcome his first interest success only comes later.

The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain egotistic and self-complacent is erroneous on the contrary it makes them for the most part humble tolerant and kind.

In this world it is not what we take up but what we give up that makes us rich.

Flaming enthusiasm backed up by horse sense and persistence is the quality that most frequently makes for success.

I love the music of Lauryn Hill and Erykah Badu and more recently the music of Laura Marling. All these women share a strength and a wisdom in their voices and music that really makes me want to make music and sing.

Took us a great amount of strength to get them into the world and for them to be in the world. I think that their little spirits you know just said well we're going to be there. So it makes it very special because of it.

Vision is perhaps our greatest strength... it has kept us alive to the power and continuity of thought through the centuries it makes us peer into the future and lends shape to the unknown.

When I write down my thoughts they do not escape me. This action makes me remember my strength which I forget at all times. I educate myself proportionately to my captured thought. I aim only to distinguish the contradiction between my mind and nothingness.

The awareness of our own strength makes us modest.

When I use my strength in the service of my vision it makes no difference whether or not I am afraid.

Some of us think holding on makes us strong but sometimes it is letting go.

That which does not kill us makes us stronger.

I'm not really interested in sports psychology. It makes me feel like a crazy person.

I think everybody has something that takes them away or makes them happier. To some people it's baseball or sports or knitting or the movies.

Tennis is not like other sports where the coach is hired by an independent entity and that makes a huge difference in the dynamic.

Tiger Woods is the only sports star who's worth every penny he makes.

Sports without music is just a game. Music makes it entertaining.

You shouldn't get to live in society and give nothing back. People complain about their taxes yet they do nothing for the community. That makes me furious.

Methamphetamine is a hideous drug. Meth makes a person become paranoid violent and aggressive - making them a serious threat to society and law enforcement. And maybe more importantly meth users are a threat to their own children and families.

One thing that makes France different from other countries is the tradition of social solidarity. People from all backgrounds and political positions are willing to contribute for services and protection of society as a whole - but on the condition that money is being spent effectively and that everyone is paying their part.

Every society rests in the last resort on the recognition of common principles and common ideals and if it makes no moral or spiritual appeal to the loyalty of its members it must inevitably fall to pieces.

Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work a company work a society work a civilization work.

I figured out I guess that the job just makes me happy if it's not number one. So if it all works great. If it doesn't I still go home look at my kids and I have a big smile on my face.

I think the deafness affects me more than I realise I think it makes me more tired. I loathe parties. I attend smile and leave.
