Famous quotes containing the word success:

    The success of a party means little more than that the Nation is using the party for a large and definite purpose.... It seeks to use and interpret a change in its own plans and point of view.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    A tragic irony of life is that we so often achieve success or financial independence after the chief reason for which we sought it has passed away.
