I could undertake to be an efficient pupil if it were possible to find an efficient teacher.

He most honors my style who learns under it to destroy the teacher.

There is no teacher living or past who can give us the actual understanding of Truth. A teacher can only put our feet upon the path and point the way. That is all. It is wholly dependent on the individual to make his way to Truth.

I have the greatest sympathy with the growth of the socialist party. I think they understand the evils that surround us and hammer them into people's minds better than we Liberals.

There's something very beautiful and compelling about someone who has ambition and someone who knows what they want but it can get a little frustrating at times so I understand that. I have sympathy for that.

I don't care about sympathy. I care about playing a character who's understandable and clear.

Interest does not tie nations together it sometimes separates them. But sympathy and understanding does unite them.

We should feel sorrow but not sink under its oppression.

Every success in limiting armaments is a sign that the will to achieve mutual understanding exists and every such success thus supports the fight for international law and order.

The first condition of success for the League of Nations is therefore a firm understanding between the British Empire and the United States of America and France and Italy that there will be no competitive building up of fleets or armies between them.

Put paying your dues and all that puts so much into being a success. You have an understanding of what it's 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.

Anyone who has to fight even with the most modern weapons against an enemy in complete command of the air fights like a savage against modern European troops under the same handicaps and with the same chances of success.

Your chances of success in any undertaking can always be measured by your belief in yourself.

An entrepreneur assumes the risk and is dedicated and committed to the success of whatever he or she undertakes.

I sort of understood that when I first started: that you shouldn't repeat a success. Very often you're going to and maybe the first time you do it works. And you love it. But then you're trapped.

The historical basis for the gap between the black middle class and underclass shows that ending discrimination by itself would not eradicate black poverty and dysfunction. We also need intervention to promulgate a middle-class ethic of success among the poor while expanding opportunities for economic betterment.

I can honestly say that I was never affected by the question of the success of an undertaking. If I felt it was the right thing to do I was for it regardless of the possible outcome.

It's very easy for me to say what success is. I think success is connecting with an audience who understands you and having a dialogue with them. I think success is continuing to push yourself forward creatively and not sort of becoming a caricature of yourself.

The road to success is always under construction.

Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to cut all sources of retreat. Only by doing so can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a burning desire to win - essential to success.

The best translations cannot convey to us the strength and exquisite delicacy of thought in its native garb and he to whom such books are shut flounders about in outer darkness.

And I think we understand we cannot make social change for all workers until we have enough strength membership strength and at the same time having membership strength and only making change for a limited group of workers is not what our country really needs for people that work.

Looking ahead I believe that the underlying importance of higher education of science of technology of research and scholarship to our quality of life to the strength of our economy to our security in many dimensions will continue to be the most important message.

I love to sing and I do think that my strength as a singer is... I think I have a voice that is certainly sufficient under most any circumstances... but I think my strength is that I really am an actor and I really do have to own what I am saying.
