The manic pursuit of success cost me everything I could love: my wife, my three children, some friends I would have liked to grow old with. – Sammy Davis, Jr.
While I was doing stand-up, I thought I knew for sure that success meant getting everyone to like me. So I became whoever I thought people wanted me to be. Id say yes when I wanted to say no, and I even wore a few dresses. – Ellen DeGeneres
