Successful

Famous quotes containing the word successful:

“We love to see any redness in the vegetation of the temperate zone. It is the color of colors. This plant speaks to our blood.... What a perfect maturity it arrives at!

What if we were to mature as perfectly, root and branch, glowing in the midst of our decay, like the poke!”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I’d sooner be called a successful crook than a destitute monarch.”
