Success

I dont think success arrives and youre suddenly happy. Its not like that. If people think that theyll be very disappointed. – Michael Hutchence

I think the success of a talk show depends on how true it is to the personality of the person hosting it. The shows I really admire, like Oprah and Ellen, are distinctively like their hosts, so I think my show will be successful only if we try to stay consistent to my own sense of myself. – Jane Pauley

The kind of theater that I do is sort of narrative realism, which I think in the broadest sense is legitimate to say is mainstream. I mean, in a certain sense, Suzan-Loris plays have had mainstream levels of success. But Suzan-Lori is in some ways not a narrative realist. – Tony Kushner

I always say that the real success of Wine Library wasnt due to the videos I posted, but to the hours I spent talking to people online afterward, making connections and building relationships. – Gary Vaynerchuk

Well, you cant be trying to achieve success of any kind in this business without accepting that theres going to be a flip side to it. – Jennifer Garner

Im starting to judge success by the time I have for myself, the time I spend with family and friends. My priorities arent amending theyre shifting. – Brendan Fraser

A sign now of success with a certain audience when you do a short comedy piece, anywhere, is that it gets on YouTube and gets around. Its always something youre thinking about unconsciously. – Andy Samberg

I mean, we are tribal by nature, and sometimes success and material wealth can divide and separate – its not a new philosophy Im sharing – more than hardship, hardship tends to unify. – Colin Farrell

If there is any secret to my success, I think its that my characters are very real to me. I feel everything they feel, and therefore I think my readers care about them. – Sidney Sheldon

The whole secret to our success is being able to con ourselves into believing that were going to change the world because statistically we are unlikely to do it. – Tom Peters

If theres no fire, theres no scream. If theres no scream, then no one hears you and no one comes to help you in the first place. The depth of my struggle has definitely determined the height of my success. To be able to teach my kids not just about success but about the struggle that comes with it. – R. Kelly

Put paying your dues and all that puts so much into being a success. You have an understanding of what its about, being on your own for three or four years and living day to day on $3, or living in an apartment with no electricity. – Taylor Kitsch

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. – Donny Osmond

I passionately believe thats its not just what you say that counts, its also how you say it – that the success of your argument critically depends on your manner of presenting it. – Alain de Botton

I think that everybody in the world, whatever colour or creed, has a jerk like JR in his or her family somewhere. Whether it is a father, uncle, cousin or brother, everybody can identify with JR and that certainly had something to do with the success of Dallas. – Larry Hagman

Thats the key to success, isnt it? It has to be fun. – Monica Seles

Theres that unwritten schism that literary writers get all the awards and commericals writers get all the success. – Jodi Picoult

If you can go out with your live show and turn people on to that, where you have that fan base thats religious and theyre going to come see you when youre in that town, once your radio success is gone and youre not a mainstream guy anymore you can still go out and play your shows. – Jason Aldean

Writers, as they gain success, feel like outsiders because writers dont come together in real groups. – Anne Rice

You wanna know what scares people? Success. When you dont make moves and when you dont climb up the ladder, everybody loves you because youre not competition. – Nicki Minaj
