“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race”
Calvin Coolidge
“It is very bad that some successful people don't really feel they are so, but it is even worse when some unsuccessful people don't really know they are.”
Hazem R Ahmed
“To be normal is the ideal aim of the unsuccessful.”
Carl Gustav Jung
“What do you call those things you find at the bottom of rivers? Frogs? Stones? Unsuccessful Gangsters?”
Terry Pratchett
“The successful revolutionary is a statesman, the unsuccessful one a criminal.”
Erich Fromm
“Successful colleges will start laying plans for a new stadium; unsuccessful ones will start hunting a new coach”
Will Rogers
“There is no use in walking five miles to fish when you can depend on being just as unsuccessful near home.”
Mark Twain
